Elbow 2" MF

Product detailed description

The brass threaded elbow 2" MF is the most commonly used joint for steel heating pipework, for example under the boiler and other heating installations. 

A brass threaded elbow changes the direction of the pipe run by 90° (or another angle, depending on the specific type). Brass is a long-proven, standard material for threaded water and heating pipework thanks to its resistance to corrosion and reliable tightness when the joint is properly tightened.

Frequently Asked Questions

• How do I choose the right fitting size? The thread size (e.g. 1/2", 3/4", 1") must exactly match the thread size on the pipe or fixture you are connecting the fitting to - designations such as FF (female-female), MF (male-female) and similar abbreviations in the name indicate the type of thread on each side of the fitting.
• What do the abbreviations FF and MF mean in the name? F (female thread) and M (male thread) indicate the type of thread on each side of the fitting - for example, "FF" means a female thread on both sides, while "MF" means a male thread on one side and a female thread on the other.
• Do I need to use sealing material during installation? Yes, sealing material (e.g. PTFE tape or hemp fiber with sealing paste) is normally used on threaded joints to ensure a perfectly tight connection - the thread alone, without sealant, will not seal reliably.
• Does the installation have to be done by a professional? A simple threaded connection can be handled by a competent DIY user, but when working on an already functioning system (especially a gas or pressurized water/heating system) we recommend calling in a plumber, who can also verify the tightness of the joint after installation.
• What material and pressure rating does this fitting have? It is made of brass, suitable for standard water and heating systems - exact nominal pressure and temperature values (where specified for the given product) can be found in the technical parameters above.
