Abstract:
A one-piece tubular elbow fitting. A unitary conduit body includes continuous, generally cylindrical side walls having a seamless configuration characterized by an absence of bumps and grooves at an inner surface thereof. The side walls are curved in an axial direction to define a flow channel having an axially arcuate flowpath and a generally circular cross section. The molecular structure of the conduit body includes former non-crystalline portions which have been reoriented and aligned to form stronger, crystalline molecular structure.
