MDC’s Kwik-Flange™ ISO KF and Large-Flange™ ISO LF High Conductance Elbows provide essential modular building blocks for high vacuum system design. Constructed from Type 304 stainless steel drawn and welded vacuum tubing, these elbows combine robust durability with enhanced flow capacity. Their mitered tube design optimizes conductance for improved gas throughput, making them ideal for applications demanding efficient vacuum pumping and minimal flow restriction. With symmetric, nonrotatable geometries and an ISO-compatible design, these fittings support flexible, leak-tight connections across flange sizes ranging from NW160 to NW250 (DN160–DN250).

Industry Application

MDC’s High Conductance Elbows are widely used in semiconductor manufacturing, pharmaceutical production, aerospace, and scientific research where optimized vacuum flow and system flexibility are critical. Their ISO-compatible design enables seamless integration into complex vacuum networks, enhancing pumping efficiency and reducing flow restrictions. These elbows are ideal for UHV chambers, process tools, and analytical instruments requiring high conductance and leak-tight reliability. The robust stainless steel construction and modular design support fast assembly, maintenance, and adaptation in demanding industrial and research environments—ensuring sustained performance and vacuum integrity throughout system operation.
