Bmi Usa 35342 Malleable Iron Pipe Elbow 2x1 Black 90

Product Description

The BMI USA 35342 is a 90-degree malleable iron pipe elbow with a 2-inch by 1-inch reducing configuration and a black finish. It is used to change flow direction in threaded piping systems while stepping down pipe size in a single fitting. Malleable iron construction gives this elbow the mechanical strength and thread-engagement integrity required in commercial and residential piping applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in gas, steam, and general-purpose piping assemblies where a durable, code-compliant threaded connection is required.

This elbow is suited for use in residential and light commercial piping systems where a 90-degree directional change and a reduction from 2-inch to 1-inch pipe are needed at the same connection point. It is commonly installed in gas distribution piping, steam lines, and compressed-air systems that use NPT threaded iron pipe. The black finish is standard for gas service fittings and is consistent with typical code requirements for gas piping identification.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction for high mechanical strength and reliable thread engagement
• 90-degree elbow with 2-inch by 1-inch reducing configuration in a single fitting
• Black finish suitable for gas service and general iron pipe systems
• NPT threaded connections compatible with standard threaded iron pipe
• Compact design allows directional change and size reduction without additional couplings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install fitting for standard NPT threaded iron pipe systems using 2-inch to 1-inch reducing 90-degree elbows.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable local codes, including IFGC requirements when used in gas service. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium before making up connections. Do not over-torque threaded joints, as malleable iron fittings can crack if excessive force is applied.
