Cast Ceramic Flat-Back Elbows
Cast ceramic flat-back elbows are engineered for extremely abrasive pneumatic conveying applications where component longevity is critical. These elbows feature a pipe or tube inner core substrate, which eliminates the need for an outlet transition and reduces wear at the discharge point. By maintaining a smooth transition from a flat-back design to a round profile, cast ceramic flat-back elbows significantly minimize material impact and erosion, resulting in longer service life and improved system reliability.
This type of elbow is extremely abrasion-resistant while also being impact-resistant. These properties help to reduce wear and therefore maintenance costs and system downtime. Because they are so durable, cast ceramic flat-back elbows can remain in a system for a long time and don’t need to be changed frequently. They also easily replace the conventional elbow without changing the line flow. This means you can:
- Minimize costs
- Boost efficiency
- Improve production capabilities
Cast ceramic flat-back elbows are available in:
- Any degree and centerline radius (CLR)
- Carbon steel and stainless steel
- Pipe and tube
- Plain ends, flanged ends, grooved ends, and other specified ends

These elbows are typically used in heavy industry to convey highly abrasive materials such as chemicals, metals, and composite products. They do not have to be changed as frequently as bare elbows and therefore are ideal for difficult-to-reach areas of your system.
