What To Keep In Mind When Using Aluminum Elbows?

As a user, it is essential to ensure a cost-efficient aluminum elbow. Thus, you must evaluate relevant information to help you maximize aluminum elbow benefits.

Aluminum Elbow

  • Aluminum is light and soft means they have easily been worn and is not suitable for abrasive products.
  • They also can be crushed or bent due to improper and poor handling during shipping.
  • Moreover, they do not contain carbon means they are prone to atmospheric or environmental corrosion.

When using aluminum elbow together with other metals, you must comprehend the basics of electrolysis and galvanic corrosion, particularly when combining copper or steel with aluminum.

Bear in mind that water, saline, and other elements will degrade the said materials.

What Are The Applications of Aluminum Elbow?

Aluminum possesses excellent versatility, strength, and flexibility. Thus, there is a wide range of industries that benefit from accurate aluminum elbow utilization,

  • In the Medical Industry

The aluminum elbow can effectively secure edges in wheelchair frames, collapsible stretchers, bed frames, and crutches.

Contact your manufacturer for aluminum elbows’ essential details.

Why Is Aluminum Suitable For Pipe Elbows?

Aluminum conducts thermal heat very well. 

It makes aluminum elbow an excellent choice for temperature control applications, like refrigerators, solar power, air conditioning systems, and other relevant utilization.

Additionally, the metal can survive high temperatures and hold a wide pressure range.

What is the Leading Aluminum Grade Used for Aluminum Elbow?

Aluminum comes in several alloys. Along with many different magnesium and silicon combinations, aluminum forms tangible alloys. 

In particular, owing to its superior weldability and excellent corrosion resistance, most prominent manufacturers utilize aluminum alloy 6061 for multiple medium and high-strength applications.

Aluminum Elbow

6061 Aluminum Elbow

Aluminum 6061 has a great scope of mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. 

Aluminum grade 5083 is also commonly utilized for marine applications.

Moreover, aluminum 6061 keeps most of the good qualities aluminum possesses. It is also convenient to work with by most commonly used production techniques.

What Are The Salient Properties of Aluminum Elbows?

Aluminum Elbows are considered best due to their exceptional features and properties. 

  • Excellent Corrosion Resistance

What Are The Remarkable Benefits Of Using Aluminum Elbows?

Aluminum elbows have multiple benefits to their users. The leading advantages of utilizing aluminum are:

  • Corrosion-resistance (it does not easily rust)
  • The average weight is lighter than steel
  • Faster and more convenient to install and modify
  • Hassle-free to fit with compression couplings owing to their lightweight characteristic

Aluminum elbows are also an inexpensive alternative, so they are frequently used as a solution for non-abrasive plastic conveying. 

They are also an excellent choice for air-only conveying lines.

What Are The Typical Classifications of Aluminum Elbows?

Aluminum elbows ranges in different types:

  • As per Fluid Directions

45-degree elbow

The 45-degree elbow is to modify pipe direction by 45 degrees.

 It is the second generally used type in industrial channels.

90-degree elbow 

The 90-degree aluminum elbow alters fluid direction by 90 degrees, also named the vertical elbow.

It is the most used kind in all the pipeline designs.

180-degree elbow

This type of elbow enables a change in direction at an angle of 180 degrees. 

Since it typically results in low pressure, its applications are limited to minimum deposition and lower turbulence designs.

Aluminum Elbow

  • As per Elbow Length and Radius

The 90-degree elbow of Short Radius

The 90-degree elbow possesses a short diameter compared to other elbows. 

So this variety of piping elbow is frequently used when there is a lack of space.

The 45-degree elbow of Short Radius

This elbow comes along copper, plastic, steel, cast iron, and lead.

 It could also be bound to clamps of stainless steel and rubber. 

The 90-degree elbow of Long Radius 

This kind of 90-degree steel pipe elbow adjoins various lengths of pipe or tubing. 

It is suitable for hoses connections such as water pumps, deck drains, and valves.

The 45-degree elbow of Long Radius

This elbow creates descending frictional resistance and decreases pressure.

  • As per connections types 

Buttweld Elbow 

It is the most common connection type.

The end elbow and pipe end connects through direct welding, also called butt to butt weld. 

Buttweld Elbow is beneficial for increasing pressure and temperature compared to other elbow connection types.

Socket weld elbow 

This connection is ideal for small diameter pipelines.

Socket weld elbow also connected with butt to butt weld. 

However, the ends of the socket weld elbow have a ladder-shaped area where you can insert the pipe ends.

Threaded Elbow 

This elbow has a similar shape to the socket weld elbow. But the only difference is that the ladder area inner surface has threads, making the elbow easier to install and un-install.
