Bmi Usa 35380 Black Street 90 Degree Elbow 2.5 Inches

Product Description

The BMI USA 35380 is a 2.5-inch malleable iron street 90-degree elbow finished in black. It connects directly from a male thread on one end to a female thread on the other, eliminating the need for a separate nipple in tight installations. This fitting is designed for plumbing and piping systems where a compact, right-angle direction change is required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting on gas distribution lines, steam systems, and general-purpose fluid piping. The malleable iron construction handles the mechanical stress and vibration common in industrial and commercial installations.

This elbow suits residential and commercial piping applications where black iron fittings are specified. Common uses include natural gas supply lines, propane distribution, steam heating systems, and compressed air piping. The street configuration allows direct connection to a pipe end or fitting outlet without an intermediate coupling, making it useful in confined spaces where fitting count and length must be minimized.

Key Features

• Street pattern: male on one end, female on the other for direct connection without a nipple
• 90-degree turn for right-angle direction changes in piping runs
• 2.5-inch nominal size for mid-to-large diameter piping systems
• Malleable iron construction resists mechanical stress and vibration
• Black finish suitable for gas, steam, and compressed air service

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard fitting for black iron piping systems using 2.5-inch NPT threaded connections in gas, steam, and general-purpose fluid applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, including the International Fuel Gas Code for gas piping applications. Shut off all gas or fluid supply and depressurize the line before threading or removing any fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium to all threaded connections. Do not overtighten threaded fittings, as malleable iron threads can crack under excessive force.
