A standard 90-degree Female/Female elbow is used when a sharp directional change is needed in a hydraulic system. The 90-degree angle efficiently redirects fluid flow, making it ideal for tight spaces where straight connections are impractical. While it creates a sharper turn compared to long swept bends, it provides a compact solution for routing hoses or pipes around obstacles.
With female connections on both ends, this elbow easily pairs with male-threaded components, offering a secure and leak-resistant fit. Though more compact, the elbow still helps prevent kinks or excessive bending in hoses, ensuring a smooth and reliable operation in high-pressure or confined environments.
