Atkore ELL-5 5 in Black Malleable Iron 90 Degree Elbow

Product Description

The ATKORE ELL-5 is a 5-inch black malleable iron 90-degree elbow fitting rated for 150 lb service. This threaded elbow is designed to change pipe direction by 90 degrees in pressurized piping systems, making it a standard component in gas, air, and compatible fluid distribution lines. The black finish indicates it is not galvanized, which is typical for natural gas and propane applications. At 13.55 pounds, the fitting reflects the heavy-wall construction expected of malleable iron pressure fittings at this size. Installation is performed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, or gas technicians working on commercial or industrial pipe assemblies.

This elbow is suited for use in 5-inch threaded piping systems where a 90-degree change of direction is required. Common applications include industrial air distribution, natural gas mains, steam service within the pressure rating, and general plumbing rough-in where black malleable iron fittings are specified. The domestic designation indicates United States manufacture, which satisfies Buy American provisions on applicable projects.

Key Features

• 90-degree elbow configuration for right-angle pipe routing in threaded systems
• 5-inch nominal pipe size for large-diameter distribution applications
• 150 lb pressure class rating suitable for standard service conditions
• Black finish standard for gas and non-galvanized piping applications
• Malleable iron construction provides impact resistance and thread integrity
• Domestic manufacture for projects requiring US-made materials

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 5-inch NPT threaded piping systems using 150 lb class malleable iron fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or gas technician in accordance with applicable codes including the IFGC, ASME B16.3, and local mechanical codes. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant rated for the service medium before makeup. Do not over-torque the joint, as malleable iron threads can crack under excessive force.
