Bmi 35371 Malleable Iron Street 90 Deg Elbow 1/8 in

Product Description

The BMI 35371 is a 1/8-inch malleable iron street 90-degree elbow finished in black. This fitting accepts pipe on one end in a male (street) configuration and female threaded on the other, allowing a sharp 90-degree directional change in a threaded piping system. The black finish is standard for gas distribution and low-pressure piping applications. At 0.024 pounds, it is a compact fitting suited for tight installations where space and weight are considerations. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this type of fitting in gas supply lines, steam systems, and general-purpose threaded iron pipe assemblies.

This fitting is used in residential and light commercial piping applications where a 90-degree change in direction is needed in a 1/8-inch threaded iron pipe run. Common installations include gas appliance supply connections, low-pressure steam distribution, and air or water lines operating within the pressure ratings of standard malleable iron threaded fittings. The street configuration eliminates the need for a short nipple in confined spaces, making it a practical choice when threading directly into another fitting or valve.

Key Features

• Street (male-by-female) 90-degree elbow configuration eliminates the need for a close nipple in tight spaces
• 1/8-inch NPT threaded connections on both ends
• Malleable iron construction provides strength and impact resistance for threaded piping systems
• Black finish suitable for gas distribution piping
• Lightweight at 0.024 pounds, compact footprint for restricted installation areas

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard fitting for 1/8-inch NPT threaded malleable iron piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or qualified HVAC technician in accordance with applicable codes such as the IFGC or IPC. Shut off gas or fluid supply and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply listed pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium to all male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten; hand-tighten and then wrench-tighten to achieve a leak-free joint without stressing the casting.
