Bmi Usa 35378 Black Street 90 Elbow 1-1/2 Inch

Product Description

The BMI USA 35378 is a 1-1/2 inch black malleable iron street 90-degree elbow used in threaded pipe systems across plumbing, gas, and mechanical piping applications. The street configuration means one end is a male (spigot) thread and the other is a female (socket) thread, allowing direct connection without an additional nipple. Constructed from malleable iron with a black finish, this fitting delivers the strength and thread integrity required in demanding trade installations. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers for this type of fitting in both residential and light commercial work.

This street elbow is suited for use in black iron gas piping systems, steam and hot water heating distribution lines, and general industrial piping where malleable iron threaded fittings are specified. The 90-degree angle makes it a standard choice when routing pipe around corners or transitioning direction within a piping run. It is commonly found in boiler rooms, mechanical rooms, and utility spaces where black iron pipe is the material of record.

Key Features

• Street (MF) configuration: male spigot on one end, female socket on the other for direct pipe-to-fitting connection
• 90-degree turn provides a square directional change in threaded piping systems
• Malleable iron construction withstands mechanical stress and threaded assembly torque
• Black finish suitable for gas and steam piping applications
• 1-1/2 inch nominal pipe size fits standard NPT threaded pipe and fittings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard addition to threaded black iron pipe systems using 1-1/2 inch NPT connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local mechanical and fuel gas codes, including IFGC requirements where gas service is involved. Shut off all gas or fluid supply and depressurize the system before disassembling any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or listed pipe thread compound to male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten; use a pipe wrench with a backup wrench on adjacent fittings to avoid stressing upstream connections.
