Update- a formal LAA Mod application for the XS aluminium elbow has now been 
submitted
and is "in the system".

I will let you know when it has been approved.

Regards

Brian

Hi Jon,

The standard lengths are 76mm so I have ordered two .  You need about 30mm 
overlap
on to each joint surface and there are effectively 4 joint surfaces.

Regards

Brian

Hi Brian,  I am going to order the Profuel joint from Merlin as you described,
in anticipation of the standard mod.   I bought one of Tims aluminium elbows 
some
years ago but never got around to fitting it and its still in my garage! 

Sorry for a silly question but do you think I need two of them (one for each 
end)
or will one of them cut into two be sufficient?
Cheers!
