Description
A flue does not always have a straight run to the roof. The 250mm elbow is a 45 degree bend that lets a 250mm flue step around a beam, a rafter or a wall offset without choking the draw. A gentle angle like this keeps smoke moving far better than a sharp turn.

Where it is used
This stainless steel bend is a flue elbow used in pairs to create an offset, or on its own to angle a flue towards a rear wall exit. It suits 250mm systems on larger fireplaces and braai hoods. See all our 45 degree elbows, the wider elbow range and other flues and accessories.
Fitting note
Every pipe bend adds a little resistance, so keep the number of bends low and the vertical run as tall as possible. Our team plans the route and fits it as part of our flue installation in Cape Town.
Can I use a 90 degree bend instead?
Two 45 degree bends usually work better than one 90 degree bend, because the smoke changes direction more gently. We only use sharper bends where the space leaves no other option.
