Anderson Metals Corp 754055-08 Brass Flare Elbow 1/2 in

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS CORP 754055-08 is a 1/2 inch brass flare elbow designed for flare-to-flare connections in gas and fluid distribution systems. Built from lead-free brass, this fitting meets the requirements of Public Law 111-380, making it compliant for use in potable water and gas applications where lead-free materials are mandated. The 90-degree elbow configuration allows directional changes in tubing runs without the need for bending or additional adapters. Plumbers and gas fitters working on residential and light commercial systems rely on this style of fitting for its reliable mechanical seal and straightforward installation.

This flare elbow is suited for use in natural gas, propane, and water supply lines where flare fittings are the specified connection method. The flare-by-flare design accommodates tubing on both ends, making it appropriate for copper or compatible soft-metal tubing runs. It is commonly installed in tight spaces where a directional change is needed within a rigid tubing layout. Sold in bulk packaging with a package quantity of 5 units per pack.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter in accordance with applicable local codes, IPC, or IFGC requirements. Shut off the gas or water supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any flare fitting. Flare seats must be inspected and free of debris or damage before assembly — do not use thread sealant or tape on flare connections. Tighten flare nuts to the fitting body using appropriate flare wrenches; avoid over-tightening, which can distort the flare seat.
