Anderson Metals 754049-1212 Brass Flare Male Elbow 3/4

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS 754049-1212 is a lead-free brass flared tube male elbow designed for use in pressurized fluid and gas piping systems. This fitting connects 3/4-inch OD flared tubing to a 3/4-inch male NPT threaded port at a 45-degree flare angle. The Flare x MNPT end configuration makes it a direct, tool-compatible transition between soft copper or aluminum tubing and standard pipe threads. It is rated for up to 550 psi working pressure, both static and dynamic, making it suitable for demanding residential and light commercial installations. Plumbers and HVAC technicians are the primary installers of this fitting type.

This elbow is used in refrigerant line sets, fuel gas distribution, compressed air, and potable water piping where a directional change is needed between a flared tube and a threaded pipe connection. The lead-free brass construction meets regulatory requirements for use in drinking water systems. It is appropriate for residential and light commercial settings wherever a 45-degree offset is needed at a Flare-to-NPT junction.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local codes, IPC, or IFGC requirements. Shut off the supply line and relieve system pressure fully before disassembling or installing any fitting. Ensure the flare on the tubing is properly formed and free of cracks or distortion before seating the fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the NPT male threads; do not apply sealant to the flare seat.
