Asc Engineered Solutions 2.NM45L 45 Degree Pipe Elbow 2 in

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 2.NM45L is a 2-inch 45-degree pipe elbow rated at 150 lb, manufactured from malleable iron with a galvanized finish. It features female National Pipe Taper (FNPT) threads on both ends and is domestically produced. The galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance in piping systems exposed to moisture. This fitting is used to change pipe direction by 45 degrees in low-pressure gas, water, and steam distribution lines. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians are the primary installers for this class of threaded malleable iron fittings.

This elbow is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications where a 45-degree directional change is required. Common install scenarios include natural gas distribution lines, compressed air systems, and hydronic heating piping. The 150 lb pressure class and FNPT threading make it compatible with standard Schedule 40 threaded pipe in these service types. Domestic manufacture supports compliance requirements on jobs specifying USA-made pipe fittings.

Key Features

• 45-degree elbow geometry for directional pipe routing
• 2-inch FNPT threads on both ends for standard threaded pipe connections
• 150 lb pressure class malleable iron construction
• Galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in moisture-exposed installations
• Domestically manufactured

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for 2-inch threaded malleable iron piping systems rated at 150 lb service class.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the IPC or IFGC depending on the service media. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before making up the joint. Do not over-tighten FNPT connections, as malleable iron threads can crack under excessive torque.
