The Westlake Pipe & Fittings 417100 45-Degree Elbow, 10″ Slip x Slip is a heavy-duty PVC fitting designed to create a smooth, gradual directional change in large-diameter piping systems. With 10-inch slip connections on both ends, it is engineered for solvent-weld installation with Schedule 40 PVC pipe, forming strong, permanent, and leak-resistant joints suitable for high-volume water flow applications. Its 45-degree angle is ideal where a gentler transition is preferred to maintain flow efficiency and reduce system stress.

Manufactured from high-quality Schedule 40 PVC, this elbow offers excellent resistance to corrosion, chemicals, moisture, and UV exposure. Unlike metal fittings that may rust or degrade over time, PVC maintains its structural integrity even in harsh municipal, commercial, or industrial environments. Despite its large diameter, the fitting remains relatively lightweight, allowing for easier handling and faster installation without compromising strength or reliability.

The precision-molded 45-degree design minimizes turbulence and pressure loss compared to sharper turns. Its smooth internal bore promotes consistent flow, reduces friction, and helps lower strain on pumps and connected equipment. This makes it well suited for main water distribution lines, large-scale irrigation systems, stormwater and wastewater management, industrial piping, and commercial pool or aquatic circulation systems.

Suitable for both above-ground and below-ground installations, the 417100 integrates seamlessly into new construction and retrofit projects. Fully compatible with other Schedule 40 PVC pipes and fittings, it delivers dependable performance, efficient flow transitions, and long-term durability in demanding large-diameter piping systems.
