TruDesign 90° Female to Male Threaded Connector – BSP Composite Elbow Fitting

$9.30
Tax included.
Size: 3/4"

Create clean, efficient plumbing layouts with the TruDesign 90° Female to Male Threaded Connector—a high-quality composite elbow fitting designed to redirect flow in tight marine installations.

Manufactured in New Zealand from glass-reinforced nylon composite, this connector offers exceptional strength, stiffness, and durability while remaining lightweight. It is completely corrosion and electrolysis free, making it a superior alternative to traditional bronze or metal fittings in saltwater environments

The female-to-male BSP threaded design allows direct connection between threaded marine components such as ball valves, skin fittings, and other BSP fittings, making it a versatile solution for plumbing systems onboard

Its 90° elbow configuration is ideal for installations where space is limited, allowing you to redirect flow without putting stress on hoses or creating awkward bends. This improves system reliability and helps maintain smooth water flow.

Engineered for harsh marine environments, TruDesign connectors are resistant to fuel, chemicals, UV exposure, and extreme temperatures (-40°C to +110°C), ensuring long service life and dependable performance

⚠️ Important: When used with a skin fitting, this connector must be installed above the waterline. Below the waterline, fittings must connect directly to a ball valve (seacock) for safety compliance
