B K Mueller 510-005HN 1 in Galvanized 90 Degree Elbow 10 Pack

Product Description

The B K Mueller Industries 510-005HN is a 1-inch galvanized steel 90-degree equal elbow used to redirect piping runs at a right angle in water supply, gas distribution, and general plumbing systems. Sold in a package of 10 units, this fitting is a standard threaded elbow designed for use in iron and steel pipe systems where corrosion resistance is required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in both new construction and retrofit applications. The galvanized coating provides zinc-based protection against rust in exposed or semi-exposed piping environments.

This elbow is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing and mechanical systems where 1-inch steel threaded pipe is used. Typical installations include water supply mains, gas branch lines, compressed air distribution, and fire protection piping. The equal-end design means both ports share the same nominal pipe size, making it a straightforward drop-in component for standard 1-inch NPT threaded systems. This fitting is commonly specified when a 90-degree directional change is needed within a rigid iron pipe assembly.

Key Features

• 90-degree turn with equal 1-inch ports on both ends for standard NPT threaded connections
• Galvanized finish provides zinc-based corrosion protection for extended service life
• Sold in a quantity of 10 per package, suitable for multi-unit jobs or stocking
• Compatible with standard 1-inch threaded iron and steel pipe systems
• Equal elbow design eliminates reducer fittings when pipe size is consistent throughout the run

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard 1-inch NPT threaded iron and steel pipe systems in plumbing, gas, and mechanical applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC) or International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) as applicable. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded fittings, as this can crack the fitting or damage threads.
