Asc Engineered Solutions 8700127700 3/8 in Street Elbow

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 8700127700 is a 3/8-inch 90-degree street elbow, also known as a quarter bend, manufactured from malleable iron with a galvanized finish. This fitting features a flat banded design and male-to-female threaded ends, allowing it to thread directly into another fitting without a nipple between connections. It is used to change pipe direction by 90 degrees in threaded piping systems and is sized for 3/8-inch pipe. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in water supply, light industrial, and mechanical piping assemblies where a compact directional change is required.

This street elbow is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing systems where galvanized malleable iron fittings are specified. The galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance for use in water supply lines and exposed piping environments. Its compact street configuration is particularly useful in tight spaces where standard elbow-plus-nipple assemblies would not fit.

Key Features

• 90-degree street configuration with male NPT inlet and female NPT outlet for direct fitting-to-fitting connection
• Malleable iron construction for toughness and resistance to impact and vibration
• Galvanized finish for corrosion protection in water supply and mechanical piping
• Flat banded design consistent with standard malleable iron fitting patterns
• 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

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 3/8-inch NPT threaded piping systems using standard malleable iron fittings per ANSI B-16.3.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before threading in the fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Follow IPC and local plumbing code requirements for fitting selection and pressure ratings in the system being serviced.
