Bmi Usa 35346 Malleable Iron Pipe Elbow 2.5x2 in 90 Deg

Product Description

The BMI USA 35346 is a 90-degree malleable iron pipe elbow finished in black, designed for use in standard threaded piping systems. This fitting changes pipe direction at a right angle and is built from malleable iron for reliable performance in pressure piping applications. Weighing 2.53 pounds, it is sized at 2.5 inches by 2 inches to accommodate reducing connections between two pipe diameters. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting during new construction and retrofit work on commercial and residential piping systems.

This elbow is suited for threaded pipe assemblies in plumbing, gas distribution, and industrial piping applications. The reducing configuration allows installers to transition between a 2.5-inch line and a 2-inch branch or continuation run without the need for an additional reducer fitting. Its black finish is standard for non-potable and gas service piping installations.

Key Features

• 90-degree elbow geometry for right-angle directional changes in threaded pipe runs
• Reducing configuration: 2.5 inches to 2 inches for in-line diameter transitions
• Malleable iron construction for strength and thread integrity under pressure
• Black finish suitable for gas and non-potable piping service
• Threaded connection type compatible with standard NPT pipe threads

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for threaded malleable iron piping systems using standard NPT connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing and mechanical codes, including the IPC and IFGC where gas service applies. Shut off all gas or fluid supply and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Use appropriate pipe thread sealant or tape rated for the service type when making up threaded connections. Do not overtighten, as malleable iron threads can crack under excessive torque.
