Asc 8700127502 1-1/2 in Black Iron 90 Deg Street Elbow Npt

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 8700127502 is a 1-1/2 inch 90-degree street elbow cast from malleable black iron. It features one male NPT end and one female NPT end, allowing it to connect directly into a fitting without a nipple between them. This configuration is common in gas piping, steam systems, and industrial black iron pipe runs where space is tight and a standard elbow-plus-nipple assembly would be impractical. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting as part of low-pressure gas distribution, steam heating, and general industrial piping systems. The flat banded body profile conforms to standard malleable iron fitting dimensions.

This street elbow suits residential and light commercial applications involving black iron pipe. Typical install scenarios include natural gas branch lines, propane distribution headers, steam heating supply and return mains, and compressed air distribution piping. The 90-degree angle redirects flow in a quarter bend, making it useful at terminal drops, wall penetrations, and appliance connections where pipe direction must change within a confined space.

Key Features

• 90-degree street elbow (quarter bend) redirects flow without an intermediate nipple
• Male NPT inlet and female NPT outlet for direct fitting-to-fitting connections
• Malleable black iron construction suited for gas, steam, and industrial pipe service
• Flat banded straight-size body meets standard dimensional requirements
• Meets Fed. Spec. WW-P-521F and ANSI B-16.3 dimensional standards
• Pipe threads conform to ANSI B-2.1; chemical and physical properties per ASTM A-197

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-stock fitting for 1-1/2 inch NPT black iron pipe systems in residential and commercial gas, steam, and industrial piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, IFGC requirements for gas service, or ASME B31 standards for industrial piping. Shut off and depressurize the line completely before disassembling any fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium to all male threads before assembly. Do not over-torque malleable iron fittings, as the material can crack under excessive force.
