Description
Schedule 80 PVC 90° Street Elbow (Spigot x Socket)
Schedule 80 PVC 90° Street Elbow (Spigot x Socket) provides a 90-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 spigot x socket street elbow configuration combines two solvent-cement connection interfaces within one Schedule 80 PVC fitting. Selection should account for nominal size, Schedule 80 PVC compatibility, adjoining components, required direction change, joining requirements, piping alignment, support, and available installation clearance.

Street Elbow Design
The street elbow configuration combines a spigot end and socket end while redirecting the piping route through a 90-degree change in direction. This allows the fitting to transition between a compatible receiving socket and compatible PVC pipe.
The elbow orientation should be established before permanent joining so both connection interfaces align with the intended piping route. Planning the direction change helps coordinate adjoining fittings, pipe lengths, piping support, and available working clearance.
Spigot & Socket Connections
The spigot connection fits into an appropriately sized compatible receiving socket, while the socket connection receives compatible PVC pipe. Both connection interfaces should be matched to the intended adjoining components before permanent assembly.
The mating surfaces should be prepared using the appropriate PVC solvent-cement joining procedure. Compatible joining materials, proper insertion, correct elbow orientation, and careful alignment 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 right-angle directional transition. Matching the nominal size and connection interfaces to the adjoining components 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, piping support, and applicable practices should all be considered during fitting selection.
Right-Angle Street Transition
A Schedule 80 PVC 90° Street Elbow provides a direct change in piping direction while combining spigot and socket connection styles. The fitting can be positioned to route compatible PVC components through the required right-angle transition.
Installation planning should consider connection insertion, elbow orientation, adjoining component alignment, nearby fittings, and available clearance. 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 spigot x socket arrangement.
- Check Schedule 80 PVC compatibility.
- Match both ends to the adjoining components.
- Confirm the elbow orientation before assembly.
Our PVC fitting specialists can help review your nominal size, Schedule 80 requirements, spigot x socket configuration, adjoining components, joining requirements, elbow orientation, piping alignment, support requirements, and available installation clearance before you order.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Schedule 80 PVC 90° Street Elbow used for?
It provides a 90-degree directional transition between compatible PVC components using spigot and socket connections.
What does Spigot x Socket mean?
One end is a spigot designed for a compatible receiving socket, while the other is a socket designed to receive compatible PVC pipe.
What connects to the spigot end?
The spigot end fits into an appropriately sized compatible receiving socket.
What connects to the socket end?
The socket end receives appropriately sized compatible PVC pipe.
How are the connections assembled?
Both interfaces use the appropriate compatible PVC solvent-cement joining procedure for their respective connections.
What should I confirm before ordering?
Confirm the nominal size, spigot x socket arrangement, Schedule 80 PVC compatibility, adjoining components, and required 90° orientation.
Important Ordering & Installation Notes
- Inspect both connections before use.
- Confirm the nominal connection size.
- Prepare all mating surfaces correctly.
- Align adjoining components before cementing.
- Set the elbow orientation before final assembly.
