Description
This premium 45° ventilation bend is designed for use with high-performance PPS ducting systems in demanding industrial and commercial environments. Manufactured for precise airflow control, the bend delivers smooth directional changes with minimal pressure loss, helping to maintain efficient extraction, supply and filtration performance across your installation.
Ideal for integration into new systems or upgrades to existing ductwork, the 45° bend allows you to route pipework neatly around structural obstacles while preserving consistent airflow. Available in a wide range of outside diameters, it is suitable for applications such as process ventilation, fume extraction, air handling and general HVAC in factories, workshops, laboratories, warehouses and plant rooms.
Product Features
- 45° bend design for controlled directional change and optimised airflow in PPS ducting systems.
- Available outside diameters from 63 mm, 75 mm, 90 mm, 110 mm and 125 mm, plus a further range of larger and intermediate sizes.
- Precision-moulded for accurate fitment to matching PPS ventilation pipe and fittings.
- Smooth internal bore to help reduce turbulence, noise and pressure drop through the system.
- Robust construction suitable for industrial and commercial ventilation and extraction duties.
- Compatible with standard mechanical or solvent-based jointing methods used for PPS ducting.
- Neutral, non-reflective exterior finish for a professional appearance in exposed installations.
Key Features and Benefits
- Maintains efficient airflow by providing a gradual 45° change of direction, helping to reduce energy consumption in fans and air movers.
- Wide range of diameters allows consistent sizing across your duct run, simplifying design and stockholding.
- Durable PPS construction offers excellent dimensional stability and resistance to elevated process temperatures.
- Smooth internal surfaces help minimise dust build-up and make routine system cleaning easier.
- Accurate moulding and sizing reduce installation time and the need for on-site adjustment.
- Suitable for both new installations and system modifications, providing flexibility when layouts change.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this 45° PPS ventilation bend be used with other types of ducting?
The bend is designed specifically for PPS ducting systems and should be used with compatible pipe and fittings of the same nominal outside diameter. If you need to connect to another duct material, use appropriate adaptor fittings specified for both systems.
How do I choose the correct outside diameter for my installation?
Select the outside diameter that matches your existing PPS ducting or the size specified in your system design. Common sizes include 63 mm, 75 mm, 90 mm, 110 mm and 125 mm, with additional sizes available for larger airflow requirements. Always maintain consistent sizing along each run to optimise performance.
Is the 45° bend suitable for use in high-temperature extraction systems?
The PPS material offers good resistance to elevated temperatures typically encountered in industrial ventilation and extraction. However, always check the maximum operating temperature of your overall system and confirm that it is within the recommended limits for PPS components before installation.
