Description
SDR26 Gasketed 90° Long Turn Elbow - Gasket x Gasket
The SDR26 Gasketed 90° Long Turn Elbow - Gasket x Gasket provides a 90-degree change in direction for compatible SDR26 PVC sewer and drainage piping systems. Its long-turn configuration provides a more gradual directional transition than a standard shorter-turn 90-degree elbow.
Manufactured by Tigre DuraPlastic, these long-turn elbows feature gasketed connections at both ends and are available in 6" and 8" nominal sizes. They belong to Tigre's SDR26 gasketed fitting family, which specifies virgin PVC material, applicable ASTM and CSA manufacturing standards, and gasketed joint performance in accordance with ASTM D3212.

Product Details
90-Degree Direction Change
Provides a 90-degree turn for compatible SDR26 PVC sewer and drainage piping.
Long-Turn Configuration
Uses a more gradual turn than a standard shorter-turn 90-degree elbow.
Two Gasketed Connections
Features Gasket x Gasket connections for compatible SDR26 piping components.
Available Sizes
Offered in 6" and 8" nominal sizes to accommodate different piping requirements.
Gasket Joint Performance
Tigre's SDR26 gasketed joint specification references ASTM D3212 testing for internal pressure and vacuum, including specified misalignment and deflection conditions.
Gasket Retention
The manufacturer's gasketed fitting specification requires gaskets to remain firmly seated during system assembly.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an SDR26 gasketed 90-degree long-turn elbow?
It is a fitting designed to change the direction of compatible SDR26 PVC piping by 90 degrees using a long-turn configuration.
What does GxG mean?
GxG means Gasket x Gasket. Both connection openings are gasketed.
What makes this a long-turn elbow?
The fitting uses a more gradual turn than a standard shorter-turn 90-degree elbow. Confirm the required fitting geometry before selecting a replacement.
What sizes are available?
Available nominal sizes are 6" and 8".
What are the manufacturer part numbers?
The 6" fitting is part 37-3690, and the 8" fitting is part 37-781.
Can I substitute a standard 90-degree elbow?
Not without confirming the required installation geometry. Long-turn and standard 90-degree elbows have different turn configurations.
What standards apply to the gaskets?
Tigre specifies gaskets manufactured to ASTM F477 or ASTM F913 and gasketed joints complying with ASTM D3212.
Where can I find the long-turn elbow dimensions?
Contact GetPipe.com for part-specific dimensions. The supplied SDR26 technical drawing collection does not include dimensioned drawings for parts 37-3690 or 37-781.
Are these fittings NSF certified?
Tigre's SDR26 specification identifies third-party NSF testing, certification, and listing to applicable ASTM and CSA requirements.
Can these fittings be used with compressed air or gases?
No. Do not use these fittings with compressed air or gases. Do not test PVC piping systems using compressed air or gases.
Important Ordering & Safety Notes
Ordering: Select the correct 6" or 8" nominal size and confirm that a 90-degree long-turn elbow is required.
Long-Turn Geometry: Do not assume that a standard 90-degree elbow has the same dimensions or turning geometry. Verify installation clearance and fitting configuration.
Connection Compatibility: Both connections are gasketed. Confirm compatibility with the intended SDR26 piping system.
Gasket Installation: Ensure gaskets remain firmly seated during assembly to prevent dislocation or misalignment.
Compressed Air and Gases: Do not use these fittings for compressed air or gases. Do not test PVC piping systems using compressed air or gases.
Fluid Compatibility: Do not use these fittings with liquids not recommended by Tigre.
Warranty: Modification of fittings voids the manufacturer's warranty. Specifications are subject to change without notice.
