Apollo Powerpress 7481606 45 Deg Gas Press Elbow 3/4 in

Product Description

The APOLLO POWERPRESS 7481606 is a 45-degree carbon steel press elbow fitting designed for gas distribution piping systems where directional changes are needed without threading or welding. The press-fit end style on both sides allows for fast, reliable connections using standard press tooling. At 3/4 inch on each end, this elbow is well suited for residential and light commercial gas lines where code-compliant, leak-tested joints are required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on gas piping systems will find the press-fit format a time-saving alternative to traditional mechanical joining methods.

This fitting is intended for use in gas piping applications requiring a 45-degree directional change. Both the A and B ends are 3/4 inch press connections, making this a symmetric elbow with consistent sizing throughout. The carbon steel construction is appropriate for gas service in mechanical rooms, utility spaces, and similar installations where durable ferrous fittings are specified. Always verify local code approval for press-fit gas fittings before installation.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style press fitting for 3/4 inch carbon steel gas piping systems compatible with standard press-fit tooling used on press-type gas distribution fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC). Shut off and verify zero gas pressure at the line before making any connections. Use only press tooling specified for gas-rated carbon steel fittings, and confirm that the press indicator on each fitting has been properly actuated before restoring pressure. Pressure-test all joints per local code requirements after installation.
