Asc Engineered Solutions 8700128302 Black Iron Street Elbow

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 8700128302 is a 1-inch 45-degree street malleable black iron elbow, also referred to as a 1/4 bend street fitting. It features one male NPT end and one female NPT end, allowing it to be threaded directly into a pipe or fitting without requiring a separate nipple. The fitting is manufactured from malleable black iron and 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 fitting in threaded black iron piping systems.

This fitting is used in residential and commercial black iron piping systems where a 45-degree directional change is required in a tight space. The street configuration eliminates the need for an additional nipple at one connection point, making it useful in close-quarter installations. Typical applications include natural gas distribution piping, steam lines, and general industrial piping where malleable black iron fittings are specified. It is sold individually and is suitable for use wherever flat-banded straight-size malleable iron fittings are required.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) or International Plumbing Code (IPC) where gas or fluid piping is involved. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before disassembling any threaded connections. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium before threading the fitting into place. Do not overtighten; use a pipe wrench and back-wrench the mating pipe to avoid stress on adjacent fittings.
