Description

In irrigation systems, the Power-Loc™ Elbow is a specialized fitting designed to connect polyethylene tubing at a 90-degree angle, facilitating directional changes in the layout without compromising water flow efficiency.

Key Features:

  • Secure Connection: The Power-Loc™ Elbow features a single barb insert with a threaded locking collar, ensuring a tight, leak-proof connection that prevents tubing from slipping or blowing off, even under high pressure and temperature conditions.
  • Easy Installation: The design allows for straightforward assembly without the need for tools. The low-effort, square-thread drive ring quickly locks the tubing in place, simplifying the installation process.
  • Durable Construction: Constructed from UV-resistant materials, the elbow is designed to withstand various environmental conditions, ensuring longevity and reliable performance in the field.

Applications:

  • Directional Changes: Ideal for altering the direction of irrigation lines, enabling efficient routing around obstacles or within specific field layouts.
  • Versatile Use: Compatible with various sizes of polyethylene tubing, making it suitable for a wide range of irrigation setups, including agricultural, landscaping, and garden systems.

Benefits:

  • Leak Prevention: The positive locking mechanism ensures a secure seal, reducing the risk of leaks and maintaining system efficiency.
  • Flexibility: Accommodates a wide range of hose diameters and wall thicknesses, providing versatility in system design and modifications.
  • Reliability: The robust design ensures that the tubing remains securely connected, even under varying pressure and temperature conditions.

Considerations:

  • Compatibility: Ensure that the Power-Loc™ Elbow size matches the specific diameter and wall thickness of your polyethylene tubing for optimal performance.
  • System Pressure: Verify that the operating pressure of your irrigation system does not exceed the working pressure rating of the fitting to maintain safety and functionality.

In summary, the Power-Loc™ Elbow is an essential component for efficiently managing directional changes in irrigation systems, offering secure connections, ease of installation, and durability to support effective water distribution.
