Galvanized Grooved Short Radius Elbows

ARGCO grooved short radius elbows are designed to join carbon steel pipe and provide a rigid pipe joint intended to restrict axial or angular movement. While primarily designed for fire protection applications, they can also be used for general service requirements.

These fittings are manufactured for carbon steel Schedule 10 and Schedule 40 pipe, are supplied standard in hot dipped galvanized finish, and are rated for working pressures up to 300 psi / 20 bar.

Key Features

• Short radius grooved elbow for rigid piping connections
• Designed to join carbon steel pipe
• Restricts axial and angular movement at the joint
• Compatible with Schedule 10 and Schedule 40 carbon steel pipe
• Available in nominal sizes 2" through 8"
• Maximum working pressure up to 300 psi / 20 bar
• Ductile iron housing conforming to ASTM A536 Grade 65-45-12
• Standard hot dipped galvanized coating
• UL, ULC, and FM listed/approved

Typical Applications

Ideal for fire protection piping and other general service piping systems requiring a compact grooved elbow fitting with a rigid joint design.

Construction Details

Housing sections are manufactured from ductile iron conforming to ASTM A536 Grade 65-45-12 for strength and durability.

Standard coating is hot dipped galvanized for corrosion resistance.

Important Notes

Working pressure and end load values are based on standard weight (ANSI) steel pipe with standard roll or cut grooved ends in accordance with ARGCO specifications.
