Asc Engineered Solutions 8700123600 Black Iron Elbow 90 Deg 1/4 in

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 8700123600 is a 1/4-inch, 90-degree malleable black iron elbow designed for threaded pipe systems in plumbing, mechanical, and gas distribution applications. Constructed from malleable iron meeting ASTM A-197 chemical and physical property standards, this fitting features a flat banded body and standard NPT threads conforming to ANSI B-2.1. Dimensions comply with ANSI B-16.3. It is sold individually and is a go-to fitting for licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on low-pressure gas, steam, or water piping systems where reliable threaded connections are required.

This elbow is suited for residential and light commercial installations where a 90-degree directional change is needed on 1/4-inch threaded pipe runs. Common applications include gas supply lines, steam heating piping, compressed air distribution, and general plumbing rough-in work. The black iron finish makes it particularly well-suited for natural gas and propane piping systems where corrosion resistance from the iron oxide surface is beneficial in dry service environments.

Key Features

• 90-degree bend for right-angle directional changes in threaded pipe systems
• Malleable iron construction per ASTM A-197 for ductility and impact resistance
• Flat banded body design standard to malleable iron fittings
• Thread dimensions conform to ANSI B-2.1 NPT standard
• Fitting dimensions conform to ANSI B-16.3
• Meets Federal Specification WW-P-521F

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard 1/4-inch NPT threaded pipe systems in plumbing, gas, steam, and compressed air applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, the International Plumbing Code, or the International Fuel Gas Code. Always shut off and depressurize the pipe system before disassembling or adding fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service media before making up threaded joints. Do not overtighten; hand-snug plus a wrench to proper engagement is sufficient to avoid cracking the fitting body.
