Flange Elbow
Flange elbow is a type of pipe fitting that combines a flange and an elbow. It is used to change the direction of a pipe run, typically by 90 degrees or 45 degrees. The flange part of the fitting allows it to be bolted to another flanged pipe or fitting, providing a secure and leak-proof connection. This type of fitting is commonly used in piping systems where the direction of flow needs to be altered while maintaining a strong, sealed joint. Flange elbows are often used in industries such as plumbing, oil and gas, chemical processing, and water treatment.

Flange Elbow Drawing
Standard pipe bend angles are used to change the direction of piping and are commonly available in several typical degrees. The most common standard pipe bend angles are:90°,45°,22.5° and 11.25°.
The angle of the flange bend usually refers to the angle of the elbow or bend pipe that changes the direction of the pipe. Specifically, it refers to the angle change in the direction of the centerline of the pipe as it passes through the elbow or bend.
Below are the drawings.
This elbow changes the direction of the pipe 90 degrees, so that the pipe changes from its original straight direction to a vertical direction
This elbow changes the direction of the pipe 45 degrees, so that the pipe deviates 45 degrees from its original straight direction.
This elbow changes the direction of the pipe 22.5 degrees, so that the pipe deviates 22.5 degrees from its original straight direction.
This elbow changes the direction of the pipe 11.25 degrees, so that the pipe deviates 11.25 degrees from its original straight direction.
