B K Mueller 510-002HN Galvanized 90 Degree Elbow 3/8 in

Product Description

The B K Mueller Industries 510-002HN is a 3/8-inch galvanized steel 90-degree equal elbow designed for use in threaded piping systems. This fitting redirects flow at a right angle and is constructed with a hot-dip galvanized finish that provides corrosion resistance in exposed or moist environments. It is a standard equal elbow, meaning both ends share the same 3/8-inch pipe thread size. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting during new construction and retrofit work on gas, water, and general-purpose piping runs where a 90-degree direction change is required.

This elbow is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing and mechanical piping applications. The galvanized finish makes it appropriate for installations where bare black iron would be subject to moisture or corrosive conditions. It is commonly used in threaded pipe assemblies for water supply lines, compressed air distribution, and similar systems. The fitting arrives ready to thread onto standard NPT pipe ends with appropriate pipe sealant or tape applied per local code requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Shut off the water or gas supply and depressurize the line before threading or unthreading any fittings. Apply an approved thread sealant compound or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly, following applicable IPC or IFGC requirements. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as this can crack the fitting or damage mating threads.
