REDUCING UNION ELBOW
REDUCING UNION ELBOW
The Reducing Union Elbow is a 90-degree tube fitting designed to connect two tubes of different sizes at a right angle, offering a compact solution for directional and size transitions in tubing systems. Both ends feature METALOK INDUSTRIES® – compatible compression fittings, with one end sized larger or smaller than the other. This configuration eliminates the need for separate reducers and elbows, simplifying system design and minimizing leak paths. The Reducing Union Elbow is widely used in applications such as instrumentation, hydraulic systems, and process control where both direction and size adaptation are required. Available in sizes ranging from 1/8” to 2” and 3mm to 50mm, it is manufactured from high-performance, corrosion-resistant materials including Stainless Steel (SS), Brass, Duplex, Monel, and Hastelloy.
- 90° elbow with METALOK tube fittings in two different sizes.
- Provides a direct connection between tubes of varying diameters.
- Precision-machined for excellent sealing and durability.
- Available in corrosion-resistant metals for tough environments.
- Offered in a wide range of imperial and metric size combinations.
- Combines direction change and tube size reduction in one fitting.
- Simplifies system layout by reducing the need for extra components.
- Maintains leak-tight, vibration-resistant performance.
- Saves installation time and space in compact assemblies.
- Ideal for instrumentation, fluid transfer, and pressure control systems.
