B K/mueller 510-201HC Galvanized 45 Degree Elbow 25pk

Product Description

The B K/MUELLER INDS(IMPORT) 510-201HC is a 0.25 inch galvanized 45 degree equal elbow used to change flow direction in threaded pipe systems. The galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance suited to water supply, light gas distribution, and general plumbing piping. It arrives as an equal elbow, meaning both ends share the same 0.25 inch nominal pipe size, keeping transitions clean and consistent. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting during rough-in and retrofit work across residential and light commercial applications.

This fitting is appropriate for threaded galvanized pipe systems where a 45 degree directional change is required without reducing pipe size. Common installation scenarios include domestic water supply lines, drain and vent rough-in, and facility maintenance piping. The package contains 25 elbows, making it practical for larger jobs or service van stocking. Its equal-end configuration suits symmetrical layout work where flow balance matters.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction resists corrosion in water supply and general plumbing environments
• 45 degree angle for gradual directional changes with lower pressure drop than 90 degree fittings
• Equal elbow design — both ends are 0.25 inch nominal pipe size
• Threaded connection type compatible with standard NPT threaded pipe
• Sold in a package of 25 units for multi-fitting jobs and inventory stocking

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard stock fitting for 0.25 inch nominal threaded galvanized pipe systems in residential and light commercial plumbing applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters following local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly, and hand-tighten before finishing with a pipe wrench. Do not over-tighten galvanized fittings, as this can crack the galvanized coating and compromise corrosion protection at the joint.
