Elbow 1" MF
Code: 2520006Related products
Product detailed description
Brass threaded elbow 1" MF is the most commonly used joint for steel heating, for example under the boiler and other heating solutions.
A brass threaded elbow changes the direction of the pipe run by 90° (or another angle depending on the specific type). Brass is a long-proven, standard material for threaded water and heating pipework thanks to its corrosion resistance and reliable tightness when the joint is properly tightened.
Frequently Asked Questions
- How do I choose the right fitting size? The thread size (e.g. 1/2", 3/4", 1") must exactly match the thread size on the pipe or fitting you are connecting to - designations such as FF (female-female), MF (male-female) and similar abbreviations in the name indicate the thread type on each side of the fitting.
- What do the abbreviations FF and MF mean? F (female, internal thread) and M (male, external thread) indicate the thread type on that side of the fitting - for example "FF" means an internal thread on both sides, "MF" means external on one side and internal on the other.
- Is it necessary to use sealing material during installation? Yes, sealing material (e.g. PTFE tape or hemp fibre with sealing paste) is normally used on threaded joints to ensure a perfectly tight connection - the thread alone without sealant will not reliably seal.
- Does the installation have to be carried out by a professional? A simple threaded joint can be managed by a handy DIYer with basic skills, but when working on an already functioning system (especially a gas or pressurised water/heating system) we recommend calling in a plumber, who will also check the tightness of the joint after installation.
- What material and pressure rating does this fitting have? It is made of brass, suitable for standard water and heating pipework - exact nominal pressure and temperature values (if stated for the specific product) can be found in the technical parameters above.
