Asc Engineered Solutions 1XD.BML Reducing 90 Deg Elbow

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 1XD.BML is a reducing 90-degree pipe elbow rated for 150 lb service. It features female NPT (FNPT) threads on both ends, transitioning from a 1-inch inlet to a 0.5-inch outlet. Constructed from black malleable iron, this fitting is suited for gas, steam, and water piping systems in residential and commercial applications. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this type of fitting when a right-angle directional change and a pipe size reduction are needed at the same connection point. The domestic manufacture designation indicates this fitting meets standard U.S. production specifications.

This reducing elbow is used in threaded pipe assemblies where space constraints or system layout requires a 90-degree turn combined with a size transition. Common applications include natural gas distribution piping, steam heating systems, compressed air lines, and water supply runs. The black finish is standard for gas piping applications. It is appropriate for both new construction and retrofit work in residential and light commercial mechanical systems.

Key Features

• Reduces pipe size from 1 inch to 0.5 inch in a single fitting
• 90-degree elbow geometry eliminates the need for a separate reducer and elbow
• Female NPT threads on both ends for standard threaded pipe connections
• 150 lb pressure rating suitable for steam, gas, and water service
• Black malleable iron construction provides strength and impact resistance
• Domestic manufacture

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard 150 lb threaded malleable iron pipe systems using NPT connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local codes, the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC), or the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the line completely before disassembly or installation. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium before threading the fitting onto the pipe. Do not over-tighten; use a pipe wrench with proper support to avoid stressing adjacent fittings or pipe runs.
