Bmi Usa 20206 1 Inch 45 Degree Extra Heavy Pipe Elbow

Product Description

The BMI USA 20206 is a 45-degree pipe elbow manufactured from extra heavy malleable iron with a black finish. Designed for use in pressure piping systems, this elbow redirects flow at a 45-degree angle and is built to handle the mechanical demands of commercial and industrial pipe runs. The extra heavy wall classification means greater durability and higher pressure tolerance compared to standard malleable fittings. At 1 pound, it is a solid, full-bodied fitting suited for threaded connections in gas, steam, or water piping systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers for this type of fitting.

This elbow is well suited for use in residential and commercial plumbing, gas distribution, and steam or hydronic heating systems where a 45-degree directional change is required. The black finish is standard for gas piping applications and is commonly specified where a non-galvanized iron fitting is required by code or system design. It is intended for use in threaded pipe systems sized at 1 inch.

Key Features

• 45-degree angle for precise directional changes in threaded pipe systems
• Extra heavy malleable iron construction for elevated pressure and mechanical durability
• Black finish suitable for gas piping and non-galvanized applications
• 1-inch pipe size for compatibility with standard trade piping configurations
• Threaded fitting design for straightforward installation with standard pipe dies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1-inch threaded pipe systems requiring a 45-degree elbow in extra heavy malleable iron.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable local codes, including IPC or IFGC requirements depending on the fluid or gas being conveyed. Shut off all gas or fluid supply and verify zero pressure in the line before removing or installing any fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly. Do not over-torque threaded connections, as malleable iron fittings can crack if excessive force is applied.
