Apollo Powerpress 7481441 90 Degree Gas Press Elbow

Product Description

The APOLLO POWERPRESS 7481441 is a 1-1/4 inch carbon steel 90-degree press elbow designed for directional changes in steel gas piping systems. Using cold-press technology, this fitting forms a secure, permanent connection without welding or threading, reducing installation time and eliminating open-flame work at the joint. It is manufactured for use in fuel gas distribution applications and is suited for both residential and commercial installations where code-compliant, press-type fittings are specified. The elbow measures 4.9 inches in length, 4.9 inches in width, and 2.2 inches in height, and weighs 1.28 pounds.

This fitting is used in natural gas and fuel gas piping systems where a 90-degree change of direction is required. The press-by-press end style allows connection on both sides using a compatible pressing tool, making it well suited for tight spaces and retrofit work where torch access is restricted. It is appropriate for commercial mechanical rooms, residential utility spaces, and any application where a permanent, leak-free gas piping connection is needed without hot work.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style press fitting for use in 1-1/4 inch carbon steel gas piping systems that accept press-type connections with a compatible pressing tool and jaw set.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter in accordance with applicable local codes, IFGC requirements, and the pressing tool manufacturer's specifications. Shut off and depressurize the gas supply line completely before cutting into any existing piping. A compatible press tool and the correct jaw size for 1-1/4 inch fittings are required to form a proper joint. Inspect the press indicator ring after pressing to confirm full engagement before restoring gas pressure and leak-testing the assembly.
