ABSTRACT:
The adjustable pipe fitting of the invention has double walls in accordance with Type B standards established by the American National Standards Institute and Underwriters Laboratories. In the preferred embodiment, the invention comprises a main conduit having three sections which are rotatably coupled together. A branch conduit is securely connected to the main conduit so that fluid communication exists between the branch and main conduits. The branch conduit also comprises three sections which are rotatably coupled together. The main conduit sections and the branch sections are coupled together at oblique angles relative to their respective longitudinal axes to provide a means for adjusting the fitting to accommodate connector pipes having various angles and orientations.
