Indus Industrial Group supplies heavy-duty Double Flanged Ductile Iron Duckfoot 90-Degree Support Bends engineered across nominal diameters from DN80 to DN1200 in pressure classes PN10, PN16, and PN25 according to EN 545 and ISO 2531 standards. Designed with an integrally cast stabilizing pedestal base (duckfoot), these bends provide rigid vertical structural support and anchor mounting at the base of vertical water pumping risers, deep well discharge headers, fire hydrant risers, and high-rise building booster columns across Iraq, safely transferring massive vertical water column weight and dynamic downward hydraulic thrust directly into concrete foundations.

Vertical pump discharge riser bases, deep well pump discharge headers, municipal water tower intake/outlet risers, high-rise building booster columns, and underground fire hydrant duckfoot foundations across Baghdad, Erbil, Basra, Sulaymaniyah, and Najaf.
Ductile Iron Duckfoot 90° Support Bends provide the vital structural and hydraulic transition foundation for vertical pumping columns, deep well discharge risers, and high-pressure vertical headers across municipal and industrial water facilities in Iraq. In vertical pump stations and deep reservoir intakes in Baghdad, Erbil, and Basra, water flowing vertically down or pumped vertically up generates enormous static gravity loads (the physical weight of the suspended water column and pipework) combined with intense downward hydraulic thrust forces whenever pumps start or stop. A standard flanged bend has no base support and would crack adjacent flanges under these cantilever moments.
The duckfoot bend features a heavily gusseted, integrally cast flat base pedestal located directly beneath the vertical axis of the bend. This base plate is precision-machined with anchor bolt holes that bolt directly onto reinforced concrete foundation piers, transferring 100% of the vertical deadweight and hydraulic thrust into the civil foundation. Cast from spheroidal graphite ductile iron (EN-GJS-500-7) with high tensile strength (≥420 MPa), the bend absorbs severe pump vibrational harmonics without fatigue failure.
Both the vertical and horizontal flanges are integrally cast and precision-drilled strictly according to EN 1092-2 and ISO 7005-2 in PN10, PN16, and PN25 ratings. Coated inside and out with electrostatically applied blue fusion-bonded epoxy (min 250 µm, WRAS certified), Indus duckfoot bends are staged across our Erbil Heavy Plant Yard, Baghdad Central Logistics Depot, and Basra Port Hub with full EN 10204 3.1 inspection certification.
The vertical water column and pipework exert thousands of kilograms of static downward deadweight, plus dynamic downward thrust during pump operation. A duckfoot bend transfers this load directly into a concrete foundation plinth, preventing the pipe weight from resting on and cracking horizontal valves or pipes.
Yes. Indus supplies high-tensile hot-dip galvanized Grade 8.8 foundation anchor bolts, leveling shims, and heavy washers designed to secure the duckfoot base plate firmly to civil plinths.
Indus stocks duckfoot bends from DN80 up to DN600 in high volume, and large sizes up to DN1200 at our Erbil, Baghdad, and Basra facilities for immediate dispatch nationwide.
