Anderson Metals Corp 738116-04 Brass 90 Degree Street Elbow

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS CORP 738116-04 is a 1/4 inch rough brass 90 degree street elbow designed for use in potable water and general plumbing piping systems. This fitting accepts a male thread on one end and a female thread on the other, allowing it to thread directly into a fitting socket without a nipple. Constructed from rough brass and certified as lead free compliant under Public Law 111-380, it is suited for installations where lead-free materials are required by code. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in residential and light commercial supply lines, fixture connections, and branch piping.

This street elbow is a compact solution for making a 90 degree directional change in tight spaces where a standard elbow and separate nipple would not fit. Its lead free compliance makes it appropriate for potable water service, hydronic heating lines, and general purpose brass piping applications. It is sold in bulk units of 5, making it practical for service vehicles and job-site replenishment. The 1/4 inch size is commonly used in fixture supply, control valve piping, and instrument connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten brass fittings, as excess torque can crack the fitting body.
