Anderson Metals Corp 738107-12 Brass 45 Deg Elbow 3/4 in

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS CORP 738107-12 is a 3/4-inch rough brass 45-degree cast elbow designed for use in potable water, plumbing distribution, and fluid-handling systems. Cast from rough brass, this elbow provides a reliable directional change of 45 degrees in a pipeline, allowing installers to route piping around obstructions or transition between offset runs. It meets the lead-free requirements of Public Law 111-380, making it suitable for use in systems that carry drinking water. Sold in bulk packs of 5, this fitting is a practical stock item for plumbing contractors and service technicians.

This fitting is used in residential and light commercial plumbing installations where a 45-degree change of direction is needed in a 3/4-inch line. Typical applications include supply line routing, fixture rough-in work, and distribution system construction. Its cast brass construction makes it well suited for both hot and cold water service. The lead-free compliance status makes it appropriate for potable water applications governed by current plumbing codes.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before making any connections. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded brass fittings, as cast brass can crack under excessive torque.
