Pegler XPress Press-Fit Copper 90 Deg Bend (Male) 15mm to 28mm

Pegler XPress Press-Fit Copper 90 Deg Bend (Male)

This is a 90 degree male bend for water and heating copper, in 15mm, 22mm and 28mm. One leg presses onto tube and the other is a plain male end.

The male leg is sized like tube and goes straight into the socket of a second Xpress fitting. The bend sweeps more gently than a tight elbow, so water meets less resistance, which can help on a busy primary run. Larger sizes are not listed; use an equal elbow from the same range there.

Common Questions

What makes this a male bend?

One leg presses onto copper tube, the other is a plain male end sized like tube. That male leg goes straight into the socket of a second Xpress fitting.

Bend or elbow on a heating flow?

The bend has a gentler sweep than a tight elbow, so water turns the corner with less resistance. On a busy primary run that small gain can help.

Is the bend made in bigger sizes?

We list it in 15mm, 22mm and 28mm only. Larger tube sizes use an equal elbow from the same Xpress range instead.
