Description
Schedule 80 PVC 45 Degree Street Elbow (Spigot X Socket)
Schedule 80 PVC 45 Degree Street Elbow (Spigot X Socket) provides a 45-degree change in direction 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 45-degree street elbow configuration combines a directional transition with 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.

45-Degree Street Elbow Design
The 45-degree street elbow configuration redirects compatible PVC piping through a moderate directional change while incorporating a spigot connection directly into one end of the fitting. The opposite socket connection receives compatible PVC pipe.
The intended elbow orientation should be established before permanent joining so the adjoining components follow the required piping route. Planning the fitting position in advance helps coordinate pipe lengths, nearby fittings, connection positions, piping support, and available working clearance.
Spigot & Socket Connections
The spigot connection fits into an appropriately sized compatible receiving socket, while the socket opening receives appropriately sized compatible PVC pipe. This SPG x SOC arrangement allows the street elbow to connect directly between compatible socket-style components and PVC pipe.
The mating surfaces should be prepared using the appropriate PVC solvent-cement joining procedure for the installation. Compatible joining materials, proper insertion, correct alignment, and planned elbow orientation help establish the connections without placing unnecessary stress on the fitting.
Schedule 80 PVC Integration
The Schedule 80 PVC construction allows the street elbow to integrate into compatible Schedule 80 PVC piping arrangements requiring a 45-degree directional transition. Matching the nominal size and each connection style to the adjoining pipe or fitting helps maintain the intended piping configuration.
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 fitting selection.
45-Degree Piping Transition
A Schedule 80 PVC 45 Degree Street Elbow provides a compact method for redirecting compatible PVC piping through a 45-degree change. The SPG x SOC configuration combines a spigot interface and socket interface within the same fitting.
Installation planning should consider elbow orientation, spigot insertion, pipe insertion, adjoining component alignment, nearby fittings, available clearance, and piping support. Connected components should align naturally with the elbow so the fitting is not relied upon to correct offsets or support improperly positioned piping.
Installation & Selection Considerations
- Confirm the nominal size.
- Verify the required 45° transition.
- 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 45° direction change, adjoining PVC pipe and socket fitting, connection orientation, joining requirements, piping layout, support requirements, and available installation clearance before you order.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Schedule 80 PVC 45 Degree Street Elbow used for?
It provides a 45-degree change in direction in compatible Schedule 80 PVC piping using spigot and socket connections.
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 directly into the elbow, allowing it to fit into a compatible receiving socket.
How much does this elbow change the piping direction?
The elbow redirects the compatible piping arrangement through a 45-degree change in direction.
How are the spigot and socket 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.
- Confirm the nominal connection size.
- Prepare each mating surface correctly.
- Set the elbow orientation before cementing.
- Use compatible PVC joining materials throughout.
