Asc 8700128500 1/2 in 45 Deg Galvanized Street Elbow

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 8700128500 is a 1/2 inch 45-degree street galvanized malleable iron elbow, also referred to as a 1/8 bend. This fitting is used to change pipe direction at a 45-degree angle in threaded piping systems. One end accepts a male threaded pipe or fitting, while the other end is female threaded, making it a street-pattern configuration. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for wet and exposed environments. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in new construction and retrofit applications. It meets Federal Specification WW-P-521F, ANSI B-16.3 for dimensions, ANSI B-2.1 for pipe threads, and ASTM A-197 for chemical and physical properties.

This fitting is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, gas distribution, and mechanical piping systems where a 45-degree directional change is required on 1/2 inch threaded pipe runs. The flat banded straight-size design is consistent with standard malleable iron fitting dimensions, making it compatible with other ANSI B-16.3 compliant fittings and standard NPT pipe. Typical applications include water supply lines, low-pressure gas lines, and general industrial piping where galvanized iron construction is specified.

Key Features

• 45-degree street elbow configuration with one male and one female threaded end
• Galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in wet or exposed installations
• Malleable iron construction per ASTM A-197 chemical and physical property standards
• Flat banded straight-size pattern per ANSI B-16.3 dimensional standard
• NPT pipe threads per ANSI B-2.1 for consistent thread engagement
• Meets Federal Specification WW-P-521F for malleable iron fittings

Compatibility

Designed as a standard ANSI B-16.3 malleable iron street elbow for use with 1/2 inch NPT threaded pipe and fittings in compliant plumbing and mechanical piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter using standard pipe wrenches and appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape on all threaded connections. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system before removing or installing any fitting. Follow applicable local plumbing codes and IFGC requirements when used in gas piping applications. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as malleable iron fittings can crack under excessive torque.
