45° Elbow IVAR.IVN422 – press x press, stainless steel AISI 304, 15 mm
Code: IVN422.15Product detailed description
The IVAR.IVN422 – 15 mm elbow from the IVAR system made of stainless steel AISI 304 (1.4301) has a compression socket with an EPDM O-ring at both ends. It connects two 15 mm diameter pipes at an angle of 45°, with the dimensions remaining unchanged. It can withstand a pressure up to PN 16 and a temperature range of -20 °C to +120 °C.
Application
Closed heating and cooling circuits, solar systems, compressed air and vacuum lines, inert and technical gases, technical and operational liquids, industrial applications, waste and rainwater. This fitting is not suitable for potable water – this is also indicated by a symbol on its body.
Installation
Cut the pipe perpendicularly to its axis using a pipe cutter or fine-toothed saw (not a grinding wheel or flame), deburr it from the inside and outside, and insert it into the socket until it reaches the stop; mark the insertion depth with a marker. Use pliers with profile M for crimping, for the 15 mm size use individual pliers. The joint is crimped only once – repeated crimping may damage the sealing.
The orange stripe breaks during crimping, so an uncrimped joint is immediately visible. In addition, the LBP (Leak Before Press) O-ring will leak during a pressure test in an uncrimped joint.
Before commissioning, flush the entire circuit and follow the manufacturer's installation instructions. If you need a push-fit end on one side, choose the type IVAR.IVN423 of the same size.

Frequently asked questions
Can the IVAR.IVN422 fitting be used for potable water?
No. The stainless steel system AISI 304 is not approved by the manufacturer for potable water, which is also indicated by a symbol on the fitting body. It is intended for heating, cooling, solar systems and technical media distribution.
What crimp pliers do I need for the 15 mm size?
Pliers with profile M. According to the manufacturer's instructions, individual pliers are used for diameters from 15 to 35 mm.
How can I recognize a joint I forgot to crimp?
The orange stripe remains intact on an uncrimped fitting, which breaks during crimping. In addition, the LBP O-ring will leak during a pressure test in an uncrimped joint, so you will detect the error before commissioning.
Can an antifreeze mixture be used in a circuit with this elbow?
Yes, the manufacturer allows an antifreeze mixture with a maximum concentration of 50 %. The operating temperature range is -20 °C to +120 °C.

IVAR designs, develops and manufactures highly energy-efficient heating and plumbing systems. We have over 10,000 catalogue items - mass-produced products and unique items - in addition to customised systems and combinations of complex products. And it’s all “Made in Italy”.
Vision
To make life easier for our clients, our clients' customers and our employees, thanks to our ability to be constantly innovative.
Mission
To design and manufacture advanced hydronic solutions that reduce installation complexity and energy consumption.
“Made in Italy” adds value
IVAR has been producing heating and plumbing system components since 1985: valves for heating bodies, direct heat metering modules, heat cost allocators, pipes and fittings, substations for heating systems, distribution manifolds, radiant panel systems, and components for solar and geothermal systems. And it’s all “Made in Italy”.
Over 200 people are employed at our manufacturing facilities in Prevalle (in northern Italy’s Brescia province). The site has been designed to streamline our many production and operational stages.
The Italian headquarters also acts as a hub for the wider IVAR Group, set up with the goal of distributing products beyond Italy’s borders. The group now has 11 branches, in Australia, Belgium, China, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Czech Republic, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, the United States and Tunisia.
Know How
Research, development and numerous laboratory tests guarantee that our clients’ requests can be translated into new high-efficiency products.
The stages required for production take place internally, beginning with hot forming, which is carried out at our subsidiary Valmon Stampati. Our continuous implementation of projects under the Industry 4.0 initiative also allows us to take full advantage of new releases in technology and IT to improve our manufacturing efficiency.
As a company, IVAR is constantly evolving. Every day, we invest in strengthening our products, in improving our production processes and in attaining new patents and certifications.
