Aluminum Bent Elbow 1.250 90-Degree

The Aluminum Bent Elbow 1.250 90-Degree from Woolf Aircraft Products is a precision marine plumbing component engineered for cooling systems, fuel lines, and hydraulic applications on boats and recreational watercraft. Built from 6061 aluminum alloy in natural finish, this 90-degree bent elbow connector serves as a critical junction point in engine cooling loops and fluid transfer systems where space constraints demand a compact directional change. Whether you're restoring a classic runabout or maintaining a modern center console, this aircraft-grade fitting delivers the reliability seasoned mariners depend on when they're miles from shore.

Manufactured to aerospace specifications, the Aluminum Bent Elbow 1.250 features a 1.25-inch nominal diameter with a 1.25-inch bend radius and 0.065-inch wall thickness—dimensions that balance structural integrity with weight savings critical to marine applications. The 90-degree geometry allows seamless transitions in tight engine compartments, while the aluminum construction resists saltwater corrosion better than mild steel alternatives and maintains excellent thermal conductivity for efficient coolant flow. The natural finish provides a clean appearance and ensures compatibility with anodized or painted systems without galvanic incompatibility concerns.

This bent elbow works best in marine cooling systems where OEM replacements are scarce or cost-prohibitive, and in aftermarket engine conversions where standard automotive fittings don't accommodate the installed angles. Boaters upgrading inboard cooling systems, installing auxiliary water pumps, or fabricating custom hydraulic lines for trim-tab systems will appreciate the precision engineering and repeatable fit. Installation requires standard hose clamps or threaded fittings compatible with 1.25-inch diameter tubing; verify your existing system's connection method before purchase to ensure seamless integration with your boat's plumbing infrastructure.
