Bmi Usa 20302 1/4 Inch 90 Degree Black Pipe Elbow

Product Description

The BMI USA 20302 is a 90-degree pipe elbow rated to extra heavy (XH) duty specifications, manufactured from malleable iron with a black finish. This fitting is designed to redirect piping runs at a right angle in threaded pipe systems commonly found in gas distribution, steam, and industrial plumbing applications. The extra heavy wall rating provides greater pressure tolerance than standard fittings, making it suitable for higher-demand mechanical systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this type of fitting.

This elbow is sized at 1/4 inch and is intended for use in threaded black iron pipe systems. It is commonly installed in residential and light commercial gas piping, steam distribution lines, and compressed air systems where a durable, code-compliant 90-degree change in direction is required. The black finish is standard for gas-service iron pipe fittings.

Key Features

• 90-degree elbow configuration for right-angle pipe routing
• Extra heavy (XH) malleable iron construction for increased pressure rating
• Black finish suited for gas and steam pipe service
• 1/4 inch threaded connection size
• Malleable iron allows for some flex resistance compared to cast iron

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement fitting for 1/4 inch threaded black iron pipe systems in gas, steam, and industrial plumbing applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable local codes, including IFGC requirements for gas piping systems. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply appropriate thread sealant rated for the service type, such as gas-rated pipe dope or PTFE tape, before threading the fitting. Do not over-torque threaded connections, as this can crack malleable iron fittings.
