Description

Westlake Pipe & Fittings 417-040 40-Degree Elbow Socket, 4″ Slip

The Westlake Pipe & Fittings 417-040 40-Degree Elbow Socket, 4″ Slip, is a high-quality PVC fitting designed to provide a precise 40-degree directional change in 4-inch Schedule 40 piping systems. Engineered for durability, long-term reliability, and professional-grade performance, this elbow fitting is ideal for applications such as pool and spa plumbing, irrigation systems, commercial and residential water lines, and industrial fluid distribution. Its 40-degree angle ensures a smooth directional change, minimizing turbulence and maintaining efficient flow throughout the piping system.

Constructed from premium Schedule 40 PVC, the 417-040 40-Degree Elbow offers excellent resistance to corrosion, chemical exposure, and UV damage. Unlike metal fittings, PVC will not rust, scale, or degrade over time, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations. The robust construction allows it to withstand high-pressure water flow, temperature variations, and continuous use, ensuring dependable performance in both professional and residential environments. Contractors, irrigation specialists, and pool professionals rely on Westlake fittings for their precision and long-lasting reliability.

The 4-inch slip connection allows for easy installation using standard PVC primer and solvent cement. This ensures a strong, watertight bond between the elbow and connected pipes. The smooth interior reduces turbulence and pressure loss while maintaining consistent flow, which is particularly important in high-demand systems such as pool returns, spa circulation lines, irrigation networks, and industrial fluid pipelines. Its carefully engineered 40-degree angle offers a gradual directional change that reduces strain on pumps and valves compared to sharper 90-degree elbows.

The Westlake 417-040 40-Degree Elbow Socket is highly versatile and suitable for new installations, system upgrades, or retrofits. It can be used to redirect pipelines, create smooth turns in fluid systems, or connect branch lines efficiently. Its lightweight yet durable design allows for convenient handling and installation in tight spaces without compromising structural integrity or performance.

Precision manufacturing ensures that the elbow socket fits accurately with standard 4-inch Schedule 40 PVC components, reducing the risk of leaks, misalignment, or connection failures. This ensures a secure, professional-grade joint that performs reliably in residential, commercial, and industrial applications. Its combination of durability, smooth interior, and precise construction makes it an essential component for efficient and reliable piping systems.

Applications for the 417-040 40-Degree Elbow Socket include pool and spa plumbing, irrigation and agricultural water systems, residential and commercial plumbing, industrial fluid transport, and municipal water lines. Its professional-grade construction, smooth interior, and corrosion-resistant design make it a dependable solution for any PVC piping system requiring a gradual directional change.
