Asc Engineered Solutions 8700128609 45 Deg Street Elbow 1 in

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 8700128609 is a 1-inch 45-degree street galvanized malleable iron elbow, also referred to as a 1/8 bend. This fitting accepts a male threaded end on one side and a female threaded end on the other, allowing it to change pipe direction without requiring an additional nipple. Constructed from malleable iron with a galvanized finish, it is built to resist corrosion in exposed or mildly harsh environments. At 0.52 pounds, it is a compact, single-piece fitting suited for threaded pipe assemblies in plumbing, mechanical, and light industrial piping systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers.

This street elbow is designed for use in residential and commercial threaded pipe systems where a 45-degree directional change is needed within tight spaces. The street configuration eliminates the need for a close nipple between fittings, making it useful in retrofit and repair work where space is limited. It is appropriate for water distribution, gas distribution, and general mechanical piping applications that call for standard malleable iron fittings with NPT threads.

Key Features

• 45-degree street elbow configuration with male and female NPT threaded ends
• Galvanized malleable iron construction for corrosion resistance
• Flat banded straight sizes per standard malleable iron fitting practice
• Meets Federal Specification WW-P-521F
• Dimensions per ANSI B-16.3 and pipe threads per ANSI B-2.1
• Chemical and physical properties per ASTM A-197

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1-inch NPT threaded pipe systems using standard malleable iron fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and IFGC or IPC requirements for the intended service. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before disassembling any threaded connections. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly and tighten to a snug fit using pipe wrenches — avoid overtightening, which can crack the fitting. Inspect the galvanized coating for damage before installation in corrosive environments.
