18 to 18mm Female 90 Degree Glass Adapter

The 18 to 18mm Female 90 degree distillation adapter is a versatile and convenient accessory designed to connect two devices or components of different sizes. This bend 90 adaptor features a female 18mm connector on one end and a male 18mm glass-on-glass adapter connector on the other end, forming a right-angle pipe bend 90 degrees in between. With this adapter, you can easily link devices, such as pipes, tubes, or connectors, that have an 18mm male connection to those with an 18mm female to female glass adapter connection, allowing for seamless and secure connections at a right angle. Its compact and durable design ensures long-lasting performance and reliable functionality in various applications. 

What is a 90-degree bend? 

A 90-degree bend refers to a change in direction of a pipe, tube, or any other linear component at a perfect right angle, which is 90 degrees. This means that the pipe or tube turns 90 degrees from its original direction, forming an L-shape or right-angle configuration. The term “bend” indicates the curving or angular alteration of the linear component. The 90-degree adapter plain bend is a common type used in various applications, such as plumbing, automotive, HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning), and industrial systems, where it is necessary to change the receiver adapter plain bend direction of fluid flow, air, or other materials efficiently and at a right angle. It allows for optimal space utilization and smooth flow through a system. 

What does bending 90 degrees look like? 

Bending 90 degrees typically results in a straight component, like a pipe or tube, taking a sharp turn to form a right angle. Visually, it would look like an “L” shape, where one section of the component runs horizontally and the other section turns vertically at a perfect right angle. Imagine taking a straight pipe or tube and folding it in half, so one half is lying flat on the ground and the other half stands vertically straight up from the ground. This is what a 90-degree bend glass adapter for bongs would look like. The actual appearance may vary depending on the material and size of the component being bent, but the fundamental concept remains the same: a sharp change in direction resulting in a right-angle configuration 

How do I bend PVC pipe 90 degrees? 

Bending PVC pipe to a 90-degree angle can be accomplished using a few different methods. A step-by-step tutorial is provided below: 

1. Prepare the PVC Pipe: Make sure the PVC pipe you’re using is the appropriate size and type for your project. 
2. Softening the PVC: Before attempting the PVC, you’ll need to soften it. 
3. Using a Heat Gun: Gradually apply heat to the section of the PVC pipe you want to bend using a heat gun. 
4. Boiling Water: Alternatively, you can dip the section of the PVC pipe you want to bend into boiling water. 
5. Bend the PVC Pipe: Once the PVC is softened, carefully bend it to the desired 90-degree angle.
