Technical & Selection Guide

A union elbow is the standard component for making a 90-degree turn between two tubes. The secure quick screw connection method of the SKNPV makes it the preferred choice over a push-in elbow for any application involving high pressure, temperature extremes, or where connection security is a top priority.

FAQ

Q: How is this different from a male elbow (SKNPL)?

A: A union elbow (this SKNPV series) connects a tube to another tube. A male elbow (SKNPL) connects a tube to a female thread.

Q: Is this fitting a "swivel" type?

A: No, the SKNPV is a solid, one-piece elbow for maximum strength. For a swivel function, please see our male elbow (SKNPL) series.
