Anvil International Inc 8700126405 Black 45 Degree Elbow

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700126405 is a 2-inch black 45-degree pipe elbow designed for directional changes in piping systems. This fitting redirects flow at a 45-degree angle, making it suitable for applications where a gradual turn is needed rather than a sharp 90-degree change. The black finish is typical of malleable iron fittings used in gas distribution, fire suppression, and industrial piping. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of fitting in both residential and light commercial systems.

This 45-degree elbow is used in threaded piping assemblies where a change in pipe direction is required within a run. Common applications include natural gas distribution lines, air lines, water distribution in industrial settings, and steam systems. The 2-inch size fits mid-range pipe runs where flow capacity and directional routing must be balanced. It is sold in packages of 6 units, making it practical for multi-point installations or service stock.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local mechanical and plumbing codes, including IPC and IFGC where relevant. Shut off and depressurize the affected piping system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Use appropriate thread sealant or pipe tape rated for the intended service medium. Do not over-torque threaded connections, as this can damage fitting threads and compromise joint integrity.
