Description
Schedule 80 PVC 22.5-Degree Street Elbow (SPG x SOC)
Schedule 80 PVC 22.5-Degree Street Elbow (SPG x SOC) provides a 22.5-degree change in direction for compatible Schedule 80 PVC piping using one spigot connection and one socket connection. The spigot end fits into an appropriately sized compatible receiving socket, while the socket end receives compatible PVC pipe.
The 22.5-degree street elbow configuration provides a gradual directional transition while combining SPG x SOC connections in one fitting. Selection should account for nominal size, Schedule 80 PVC compatibility, connection orientation, required direction change, adjoining pipe and fitting connections, joining requirements, piping support, and available installation clearance.

22.5-Degree Street Elbow Design
The 22.5-degree street elbow configuration redirects compatible PVC piping through a gradual directional change while incorporating a spigot connection directly into one end of the fitting. This arrangement allows the elbow to connect directly into a compatible receiving socket without requiring a separate pipe section between the two components.
The intended elbow orientation should be established before permanent joining so the spigot and socket connections correspond with the required piping route. Planning the fitting position in advance helps coordinate adjoining components, pipe lengths, nearby fittings, support locations, and available working clearance.
Spigot & Socket Connections
The spigot connection is designed to enter an appropriately sized compatible receiving socket, while the opposite socket connection receives compatible PVC pipe. This mixed connection arrangement provides a compact transition where a gradual directional change is required directly from an existing socket-style connection.
The mating surfaces should be prepared using installation practices appropriate for the PVC piping system. Compatible joining materials, adequate insertion, proper alignment, and correct elbow orientation help establish both connections while reducing unnecessary mechanical stress on the fitting and adjoining piping.
Schedule 80 PVC Integration
The Schedule 80 PVC construction allows the street elbow to integrate into compatible Schedule 80 PVC piping arrangements requiring a 22.5-degree directional transition. Matching the nominal size and each connection style to the adjoining pipe or fitting helps maintain the intended connection arrangement throughout the piping run.
Application suitability should be evaluated using the requirements of the complete piping system rather than the schedule designation alone. Intended service conditions, adjoining materials, connection compatibility, joining materials, installation environment, piping support, and applicable practices should all be considered during elbow selection.
Gradual Directional Transition
A Schedule 80 PVC 22.5-Degree Street Elbow provides a compact way to make a gradual directional adjustment while transitioning from a spigot connection to a socket connection. The SPG x SOC arrangement can simplify certain piping layouts by allowing the fitting to connect directly into an existing compatible socket.
Installation planning should consider the required angle, spigot insertion, socket insertion, adjoining pipe length, nearby fittings, available clearance, and independent support for the piping. Connected components should align naturally with the elbow so the fitting is not relied upon to correct improperly positioned piping.
Installation & Selection Considerations
- Confirm the nominal size.
- Verify the required 22.5° change.
- Check Schedule 80 PVC compatibility.
- Identify the spigot and socket positions.
- Match the elbow orientation to the piping layout.
Our PVC fitting specialists can help review your nominal size, Schedule 80 requirements, SPG x SOC configuration, required 22.5° direction change, spigot position, socket connection, adjoining PVC pipe and fittings, joining requirements, piping layout, and available installation clearance before you order.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Schedule 80 PVC 22.5-Degree Street Elbow used for?
It changes the direction of compatible Schedule 80 PVC piping by 22.5 degrees using one spigot connection and one socket connection.
What does SPG mean?
SPG identifies a spigot-style connection designed to fit into an appropriately sized compatible receiving socket.
What does SOC mean?
SOC identifies a socket-style connection designed to receive appropriately sized compatible PVC pipe.
Why is this fitting called a street elbow?
The street configuration incorporates a spigot end that can fit directly into a compatible receiving socket rather than requiring a separate pipe section between the components.
How much does this elbow change the piping direction?
The elbow provides a 22.5-degree change in direction between the spigot and socket connections.
How are the connections assembled?
The compatible PVC components are joined using the appropriate PVC solvent-cement preparation and assembly procedure for each connection.
Important Ordering & Installation Notes
- Inspect both connections before use.
- Prepare each mating surface correctly.
- Identify the spigot position before joining.
- Set the elbow orientation before cementing.
- Use compatible PVC joining materials throughout.
