Anderson Metals Corp 756100-06 Brass 90 Degree Elbow 3/8 Fpt

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS CORP 756100-06 is a 3/8-inch female pipe thread (FPT) brass 90-degree elbow designed for directional changes in pressurized piping systems. Constructed from lead-free brass in compliance with Public Law 111-380, this fitting meets the federal lead-free standard required for potable water applications. It is a bulk-packaged fitting sold in units of five, suited for plumbers and pipefitters working on residential or light commercial water supply lines where a right-angle turn is needed in an FPT configuration.

This elbow is used in plumbing installations where a 90-degree change in pipe direction is required on a female-threaded line. Typical applications include domestic water supply systems, water heater connections, fixture rough-in, and other pressurized service lines that require lead-free-certified fittings. Its brass construction makes it appropriate for use in both hot and cold water service. Licensed plumbers installing potable water systems in jurisdictions that enforce lead-free requirements will find this fitting compliant for those installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before removing any existing fittings or making new connections. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten, as brass threads can be damaged by excessive force.
