Anderson Metals Corp 714055-06 Flare Elbow 90 Degree

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS CORP 714055-06 is a 90-degree flare elbow designed for use in refrigeration, HVAC, and plumbing systems where a right-angle direction change is required in a flare-connection line. The fitting connects 3/8-inch flare to 3/8-inch flare and is lead free compliant, meeting the requirements of Public Law 111-380. It is sold in a package of 10 carded units, making it practical for contractors who need jobsite-ready stock. Licensed HVAC technicians and plumbers are the primary installers for this type of fitting.

This elbow is suited for residential and light commercial applications where flare fittings are specified for refrigerant lines, fuel gas lines, or other fluid systems requiring a leak-resistant mechanical joint. The 90-degree angle makes it useful in tight equipment bays, wall penetrations, and panel connections where straight runs are not possible. Its lead free compliance makes it appropriate for potable water and other regulated applications in jurisdictions enforcing lead-free standards.

Key Features

• 90-degree flare-to-flare configuration for right-angle line routing
• 3/8-inch flare on both ends for a symmetric, same-size connection
• Lead free compliant per Public Law 111-380
• Sold as a package of 10 carded units for convenient jobsite use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for systems using standard 3/8-inch flare connections, including residential and light commercial HVAC, refrigeration, and plumbing lines.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician or plumber following applicable codes, including IFGC or IPC as required by the system type. Shut off all pressure in the line and recover any refrigerant before disconnecting or installing flare fittings. Use a properly sized flaring tool to ensure the tube end seats correctly against the fitting seat to prevent leaks. Do not overtighten the flare nut, as this can crack the flare or distort the seat.
