Asc Engineered Solutions 8700126603 Galvanized Elbow 1/2 in

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 8700126603 is a 1/2-inch, 45-degree malleable iron galvanized elbow, also referred to as a 1/8 bend fitting. It is designed for use in threaded pipe assemblies where a directional change of 45 degrees is required. The fitting is manufactured from malleable iron and finished with galvanizing for corrosion resistance. It meets Federal Specification WW-P-521F, ANSI B-16.3 dimensional standards, ANSI B-2.1 pipe thread standards, and ASTM A-197 chemical and physical property requirements. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in low-pressure piping systems, mechanical rooms, and general piping infrastructure.

This elbow is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications where a threaded 45-degree change of direction is needed. The flat banded body style is consistent with standard malleable iron fitting lines. It is commonly used in water supply, hydronic heating, and general mechanical piping systems where galvanized fittings are specified for added corrosion resistance in exposed or moderately corrosive environments.

Key Features

• 45-degree (1/8 bend) directional change for threaded piping runs
• Malleable iron construction per ASTM A-197 for strength and ductility
• Galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance in exposed or damp environments
• Flat banded body style meets ANSI B-16.3 dimensional standards
• Threaded connections conform to ANSI B-2.1 pipe thread specifications
• Complies with Federal Specification WW-P-521F

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-stock threaded fitting for use with 1/2-inch NPT threaded pipe in malleable iron fitting systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Shut off and depressurize the piping system fully before removing any existing fittings or making new connections. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly. Follow applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements for fitting selection, thread engagement, and system pressure testing.
