WATTS ANKA REINFORCED NYLON 90-DEGREE ELBOW - 1/2"

Make a 90-degree turn in 1/2" ID-sized polyethylene pipe, garden hose, or washdown line without tools or extra fittings. The fiberglass-reinforced nylon body with bright blue captive compression nuts on each end is the ANKA signature - approved for potable water, non-corrosive in fertilizer and chlorinated lines, and rated 230 PSI at 140 deg F. Used in agricultural irrigation, rural water service, hydroponic systems, marine washdown, and contractor garden-hose work.

  • Barb x barb 90-degree elbow for 1/2" ID PE pipe, tube, or hose
  • Fiberglass-reinforced nylon - non-corrosive in fertilizer, chlorine, and saltwater
  • Two captive blue compression nuts hand-tighten; no clamps or tools needed
  • UV stabilized for above-ground service; approved for potable water
  • Max 230 PSI at 140 deg F; reusable after disassembly
  • Accommodates a range of PE wall thicknesses with one fitting size

Common 1/2" applications: sprinkler riser drop turning out of a manifold, drip-line header corner along a raised bed, greenhouse misting-loop bend, and residential lateral turning around a corner of the house. Also handles the corner from a 1/2" garden hose lead to a soaker run laid along a tree line.

Tip: The 1/2" size is the most sensitive to angled or burred pipe ends - use a poly pipe cutter (not a hacksaw or utility knife) so each end seats fully and squarely against the inner barb shoulder. Hand-tighten both blue nuts firmly; skip the channel locks because over-torque crushes the captive seal.
