Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS 756200-08 is a lead-free brass 90 degree elbow fitting designed for threaded pipe systems using NPT connections. The flanged design provides a secure mechanical stop during assembly, helping ensure consistent thread engagement and a leak-resistant seal. Rated to 1000 psi, this fitting handles demanding service conditions across a range of residential and commercial plumbing, gas, and fuel applications. The brass construction offers reliable corrosion resistance in both wet and dry service environments. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians are the typical installers for this type of fitting.
