Bends 90 Degrees

Bends 90 Degrees

Bhanu Scientific Glass Co. offers precision-engineered 90° glass bends for chemical, pharmaceutical, and industrial process pipelines. These bends are designed to change flow direction efficiently while ensuring chemical resistance, transparency, and vacuum compatibility.

90° bends are used where pipelines require sharp directional changes. Fabricated from borosilicate glass 3.3, these bends provide chemical inertness, optical clarity, and smooth internal surfaces for minimal pressure drop. They are suitable for both vacuum and pressure systems.

Key uses:

• Redirecting fluid flow in reactors and pipelines
• Integrating into extraction, distillation, or circulation loops
• Providing connection points for thermometers, sampling ports, or drain outlets
