Dixon BioPharm 90° weld elbow, 1-1/2"

This Dixon BioPharm 90° weld elbow turns a run of BPE tube through a right angle and is welded in at both ends. It is 316 stainless steel and it comes in 9 tube sizes, from 1/2" to 6". The PL finish (SF1) is mechanically polished on both surfaces: the outside is 0.812 and the inside is 0.508.

The elbow is made to ASME BPE 2019. Its packing page lists the markings (including part number, heat number and finish code, where space allows), says a material test report is included in the bag, and the fitting is capped, with a blue cap for the PL finish.

Key specifications

Choosing the right option

Choose the finish from your process specification. The PL version of this elbow is mechanically polished inside and out; the PM version is electropolished inside. Dixon also offers a 45° weld elbow, clamp elbows and tees in the same finishes, so a whole run can be matched.

Mechanical polishing is smoothing the surface with tools and progressively finer abrasives, and electropolishing as an electrochemical process that removes material and leaves a smoother, mirror-like surface.
