JOCO Elbow
Kadant Johnson Syphon Elbows are designed to simplify installation of the stationary  syphon and provide a closer clearance to the internal roll surface. The gravity-lock elbow is made of ductile iron with corrosion-resistant plating and has a large bearing area for the hinge pin.
The JOCO elbow is available in sizes from 1/4" to 1-1/2".
 Spring-Lock Syphon Elbow
To extend the life of the JOCO elbow, a new spring-lock version is now available. The spring-lock elbow utilizes the same tested and proven gravity-lock elbow along with a spring-lock assembly.
The spring-lock assembly is an upgrade of the original gravity-lock design. Available in 1/2" and 3/4" sizes, the spring-lock syphon elbow offers improved performance and reduced susceptibility to failure. Additional features and benefits are listed below.
