Asc Engineered Solutions 8700128252 3/4 in 45 Deg Street Elbow

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 8700128252 is a 3/4-inch, 45-degree street malleable black iron elbow designed for use in threaded pipe systems. Also referred to as a 1/4 bend, this fitting features one male NPT end and one female NPT end, allowing it to connect directly to another fitting without requiring a separate pipe nipple between them. Constructed from malleable black iron with flat banded straight sizing, it meets Federal Specification 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 gas distribution, steam, and general-purpose piping applications.

This street elbow is suited for residential and light commercial piping work where a 45-degree directional change is needed in a threaded black iron system. The street configuration eliminates the need for an additional nipple at one end, which saves space in tight installations. Common applications include natural gas lines, low-pressure steam systems, and compressed air distribution. The 3/4-inch size fits standard schedule 40 black iron pipe of the same nominal diameter.
