Bmi 35308 Malleable Iron 90 Degree Elbow 1-1/2 Inch

Product Description

The BMI 35308 is a black malleable iron 90-degree elbow fitting designed for threaded pipe installations in plumbing, gas distribution, and mechanical piping systems. With a 1-1/2 inch pipe size, this elbow provides a reliable, pressure-rated directional change in ferrous pipe runs. Malleable iron construction offers the ductility and impact resistance required in both residential and light commercial applications. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors use this fitting where a standard 90-degree turn is needed in a threaded black iron system.

This fitting is suited for use in black iron pipe systems commonly found in natural gas supply lines, propane distribution, fire suppression piping, and general mechanical piping. The 1-1/2 inch size fits standard Schedule 40 threaded pipe and is appropriate for interior rough-in work in residential and commercial construction. It is also commonly used in steam and hydronic heating distribution systems where threaded malleable iron fittings are the standard of practice.

Key Features

• 90-degree elbow configuration for directional pipe routing
• Malleable iron construction for ductility and strength in threaded systems
• Black finish suitable for gas, steam, and general mechanical piping
• 1-1/2 inch pipe size fits standard NPT threaded pipe

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, the International Plumbing Code, or the International Fuel Gas Code where gas service is involved. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service before threading the fitting onto the pipe. Hand-tighten first, then wrench-tighten to achieve a proper seal without over-stressing the fitting. Shut off all gas or fluid supply and depressurize the line before beginning work on any existing system.
