Rain Bird PVC valve fitting 1206-010 - 90° union elbow - 1-inch M to 1-inch F

90° elbow for Rain Bird valve manifolds

The Rain Bird RB1206-010 is a compact 90° PVC elbow for the modular Rain Bird valve manifold system. With one 1-inch male thread and one 1-inch female thread, it provides a 90-degree change of direction and is particularly suitable for creating space-saving valve assemblies.

The elbow belongs to the Rain Bird RB1200 Series with female valve connections and can be combined with compatible components from the modular PVC manifold system.

1-inch male to female connection

The RB1206-010 connects a 1-inch male connection to a 1-inch female connection at a 90-degree angle. This allows you to change the connection direction within a valve box and make efficient use of the available installation space.

The female valve connection of the RB1200 Series is designed for compatible irrigation valves with a 1-inch male thread. This allows the appropriate valve to be connected without an additional adapter.

Telescoping system for easy valve replacement

The RB1206-010 is part of the telescoping Rain Bird PVC manifold system. The system allows irrigation valves with different installation lengths to be replaced without cutting the existing pipework or adding additional connection parts.

The detachable system connections also simplify maintenance and future modifications to the valve assembly. Individual components can therefore be removed and replaced more easily when required.

Easy installation with O-ring seals

Large O-rings provide reliable sealing at the designated system connections. The components of the Rain Bird PVC manifold system are designed for simple hand-tightened installation.

No additional Teflon tape is required on the designated O-ring-sealed system connections. This simplifies initial installation and allows the valve assembly to be opened again for future maintenance.
