Bmi 46307 Carbon Press Gas Elbow 1-1/4 in 90 Degree

Product Description

The BMI 46307 is a 1-1/4 inch 90-degree press-fit elbow designed for carbon steel gas piping systems. It uses a press connection method, eliminating the need for threading, soldering, or welding during installation. The fitting redirects gas flow at a right angle and is suited for natural gas and propane distribution lines in residential and light commercial applications. Licensed plumbers and gas fitters install this type of fitting as part of interior gas rough-in work where speed and reliability are priorities.

This elbow is used in carbon press gas piping systems where a 90-degree directional change is required. Typical installations include gas supply lines to appliances such as furnaces, water heaters, boilers, and cooking equipment. The press-fit design is intended for use with compatible press tooling and press-system piping, making it well-suited for retrofits and new construction where open-flame joining methods are restricted or undesirable.

Key Features

• 90-degree elbow configuration for right-angle gas line routing
• 1-1/4 inch press-fit connection on both ends
• Carbon steel construction for gas piping service

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style press-fit replacement fitting for 1-1/4 inch carbon steel gas piping systems using press-connect technology.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC). Shut off and verify zero gas pressure at the line before beginning any fitting work. Use only press tooling rated and approved for carbon steel gas press fittings with the correct jaw profile for this fitting size. Inspect the pipe end for burrs, roundness, and correct insertion depth marks before pressing to ensure a leak-free joint.
