Product Description
This Weldable Elbow – Self Colour is designed to form a smooth, secure 90° change in direction when working with BS1387 handrail tubing. Manufactured to high standards and supplied in a self-colour (uncoated) finish, this fitting offers strength, reliability, and excellent weldability—ideal for use in fabrications where durability and precision are essential.
This 90-degree elbow features an outer diameter of 165.1mm and a nominal bore of 150mm, making it a suitable match for heavy-duty steel tube systems in construction, industrial, and handrailing applications. These weldable elbows are tested to EN ISO 1461 and available in a range of sizes to suit different pipe dimensions and layouts.
The self-colour finish allows for easy welding and post-treatment customisation, such as galvanising or painting, depending on the end use.Our Weldable Elbows are a perfect fit for our BS1387 tubing and allow for a 90 degree bend. These elbows come in a range of different sizes and nominal bores. Tested to Eniso1461 standards. Available in a self-colour finish.

FAQ
What is a Weldable Elbow ? Self Colour used for?
A Weldable Elbow ? Self Colour is used to create a fixed 90? bend in a steel pipe or tube system. It is typically welded into place for permanent structural use in handrails, barriers, or frameworks.
What does 'self colour' mean?
Self colour means the product is supplied in an untreated, raw steel finish. This allows it to be welded without interference from coatings and then finished with galvanising, painting, or primer to suit the application.
Is this weldable elbow compatible with galvanised tube?
Yes, it?s designed to suit BS1387 tube, including galvanised options. However, for a consistent finish, it is often galvanised as part of the full welded assembly after fabrication.
Can this elbow be used for pressure pipework?
These weldable elbows are generally used in structural applications such as handrailing, barriers, and general framework. For pressure pipework, refer to specific fittings rated for fluid or gas systems.
Do you offer different sizes of weldable elbows?
Yes. This elbow has a 150mm nominal bore and 165.1mm OD, but other sizes are available to suit a variety of pipework dimensions. Please check the full product range or contact us for stock availability.
Is this elbow pre-galvanised?
No. It is supplied in self colour to make welding and fabrication easier. You can galvanise the full assembly after welding if corrosion resistance is required.
