Asc Engineered Solutions 8700124103 3/8 in Galvanized 90 Deg Elbow

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 8700124103 is a 3/8 inch malleable iron 90 degree elbow, also known as a 1/4 bend, used to redirect pipe runs at a right angle in threaded piping systems. Finished with a galvanized coating for corrosion resistance, it features a flat banded body that meets dimensional and thread standards for standard malleable iron fittings. The fitting is manufactured to Fed. Spec. 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. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in residential and commercial piping systems where a 90 degree change of direction is required on a 3/8 inch threaded line.

This elbow is suited for use in residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC piping, fire protection, and general industrial piping applications where 3/8 inch NPT threaded connections are specified. The galvanized finish makes it appropriate for dry or damp environments where mild corrosion protection is needed. It is compatible with standard NPT threaded pipe and fittings of the same nominal size.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction meets ASTM A-197 chemical and physical property requirements
• Galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for damp or exposed environments
• Flat banded body conforms to ANSI B-16.3 dimensional standards
• ANSI B-2.1 compliant pipe threads for reliable NPT engagement
• Sold individually, 3/8 inch nominal pipe size

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for 3/8 inch NPT threaded piping systems in plumbing, HVAC, and general industrial applications.

Installation Notes

This fitting is typically installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters working under applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC or local equivalents. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system before installation. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly and tighten to snug plus standard turns per the fitting manufacturer guidance. Do not overtighten malleable iron fittings, as the material can crack under excessive torque.
