FEMALE ELBOW PN16
FEMALE ELBOW PN16
Female Elbow PN16 Pipe Fitting Supplier in Qatar
The Female Elbow PN16 is a compression pipe fitting that combines a 90-degree directional change with a female threaded end, allowing a PE or HDPE pipe to connect directly to a female BSP threaded outlet, valve, or fixture. Rated at PN16 pressure, this fitting is engineered for reliable performance in water supply, plumbing, and irrigation systems across Qatar.
Unlike a standard equal elbow, the Female Elbow PN16 serves as a transition fitting — one end compresses onto a PE pipe while the other end threads onto a female-threaded component, making it an essential fitting wherever a pipeline meets a valve, tap, pump, or threaded connection point.
SSK Trading WLL is a trusted Female Elbow PN16 supplier in Qatar, supplying contractors, MEP companies, plumbers, and irrigation engineers with fast delivery and competitive bulk pricing across Doha and all Qatar locations.

Product features
The Female Elbow PN16 is a 90-degree transition pipe fitting rated at 16 bar
pressure, combining a compression end for PE or HDPE pipes with a female BSP
threaded end for connecting to valves, taps, and threaded fixtures. Features
a leak-proof EPDM O-ring seal and stainless steel grip ring on the
compression side for a secure, tool-free installation. UV and corrosion
resistant — engineered to perform in Qatar's demanding outdoor and
high-temperature conditions. Available in multiple size combinations to suit
plumbing, irrigation, and MEP applications.
Materials and care
Materials and care
Body Material: High-density polyethylene (HDPE) or polypropylene (PP)
Compression Seal: EPDM O-ring for watertight connection on PE pipe end
Grip Ring: Stainless steel for secure pipe hold on compression side
Threaded End: Female BSP thread for connection to male-threaded fixtures
Pressure Rating: PN16 (16 bar)
Temperature Range: Suitable for cold and ambient water systems
Care Instructions: Store in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight
before installation. Inspect the O-ring seal before fitting. Ensure the PE
pipe end is cut cleanly and squarely before insertion into compression side.
Apply PTFE thread tape to the male-threaded component before connecting to
the female thread end to ensure a leak-free seal. Do not overtighten —
hand-tighten the compression nut until snug. Compatible with PE and HDPE
pipes on the compression side only.
Merchandising tips
Merchandising tips
Installation Tip: Always apply PTFE thread tape (plumber's tape) to the male
thread of the valve or fixture before screwing into the female threaded end
of this fitting — this ensures a leak-free threaded connection under pressure.
Pipe Prep Tip: Cut the PE pipe end cleanly and squarely before inserting
into the compression side. A clean, square cut ensures the O-ring seats
correctly and prevents leaks at the joint.
Sizing Tip: Female Elbow PN16 fittings are sized by both the compression
pipe OD and the BSP thread size — for example 25mm x ¾" BSP. Always confirm
both dimensions before ordering to avoid mismatched fittings on site.
Project Tip: Use the Female Elbow PN16 at transition points where your PE
pipeline meets a threaded valve or fixture — such as at irrigation zone
valves, pump inlets, or building entry points. This eliminates the need for
separate adaptor fittings at these junctions.
