The 1620 – 12/16 Reducing Elbow is a professional PEX gas fitting designed for LPG gas installations where a 90-degree change in direction and a reduction in pipe size is required. This fitting allows installers to safely transition between different PEX pipe diameters while maintaining consistent gas flow and system integrity.
Manufactured for durability and long-term performance, the reducing elbow is commonly used in residential and commercial gas reticulation systems. It is ideal for installations where larger supply lines need to be reduced to smaller branch lines for individual appliances such as gas stoves, gas hobs, gas geysers, gas fireplaces, and heaters.
PEX gas systems are widely preferred due to their resistance to corrosion, vibration, and scale build-up. The 1620 – 12/16 Reducing Elbow supports these advantages by offering excellent pressure handling and temperature resistance, making it suitable for demanding LPG environments.
The elbow design allows installers to route pipework neatly in confined spaces such as cupboards, wall cavities, behind appliances, or service voids while achieving the required size reduction. When installed using the correct PEX press or crimp system, this fitting provides a secure, leak-free connection that meets professional safety and compliance standards.
This fitting is suitable for:
– Reducing LPG gas pipe size while changing direction
– Gas stove and hob installations
– Gas geyser and heater connections
– Residential and commercial gas reticulation
– Professional installer toolkits and spare parts
Whether used in new installations, system modifications, or upgrades, the 1620 – 12/16 Reducing Elbow offers installers a reliable and compliant solution for size transitions within PEX gas systems.
