Cost-Effective SDR 17 90° Spigot Elbow PE100 Butt Fusion Elbow for Water PN10 and Gas 6 Bar Networks

90° Spigot Elbow PE100 SDR 17 — Cost-Effective Light-Wall Butt Fusion Fitting

The PE100 90° spigot elbow (SDR 17) is the light-wall economical option in the PE100 butt fusion programme — rated Water PN10 and Gas 6 Bar. With plain pipe-end (spigot) connections on both sides, it is engineered for butt fusion jointing directly to PE100 pipe of the same SDR, delivering full-strength welded joints at the lowest material cost per fitting.

Manufactured from virgin PE100 black polyethylene supplied by recognised polymer leaders such as Borealis and Ineos, our spigot elbows carry full batch traceability. The one-piece moulded construction produces a smooth bore with no seams, maximising flow and eliminating stress concentration points. Long spigot ends give the welder generous clamping and fusion space, while factory-chamfered ends follow DVS 2207 / ISO 21307 welding procedures.

The range covers d20mm to d500mm, with d25-315mm held as standard stock and larger sizes produced on request. Each fitting is individually marked with size, SDR, standard and batch codes.

Typical Applications

• Irrigation mainlines and gravity-fed water systems (PN10)
• Rural and agricultural water supply networks
• Low-pressure gas distribution networks (up to 6 Bar)
• Drainage and low-pressure utility pipework
• Butt fusion PE100 systems where electrofusion is not available

Key Features & Benefits

• Light-wall SDR 17 — lowest material weight per fitting in the PE100 programme
• Water PN10 / Gas 6 Bar — covers low-pressure water and gas networks
• Cost-effective — reduces fitting cost per joint in long-run networks
• EN 1555-3 gas certification — approved for PE gas supply systems up to 6 Bar
• EN 12201-3 / ISO 4427-3 water certification — irrigation and water compliance
• Moulded one-piece construction — smooth bore, no seams, lower pressure loss
• Butt fusion jointing — full-strength PE-to-PE weld per DVS 2207 / ISO 21307
• Factory-chamfered ends — ready for immediate butt fusion on site

Why Choose SDR 17?

SDR 17 offers the best material economy in the PE100 range for low-pressure duty. For irrigation schemes, gravity-fed rural networks and 6 Bar gas projects, light-wall spigot elbows cut pipeline cost without sacrificing joint integrity — butt fusion welds retain 100% of pipe strength regardless of wall class.

Dimensions — Moulded 90° Long Spigot Elbow, SDR 17 (PN10 / Gas 6 Bar)
