Bmi Usa 6202 Brass 45 Degree Elbow Fitting 1/4 Inch

Product Description

The BMI USA 6202 is a 1/4-inch lead-free brass 45-degree threaded elbow fitting designed for use in fluid and gas distribution systems. Machined from solid brass, this fitting provides a reliable angled connection point in tight plumbing runs where a full 90-degree turn is impractical. Its threaded ends allow for straightforward hand-start assembly followed by wrench tightening, and the lead-free construction meets modern potable water compliance standards. At 0.09 pounds, it is a compact, lightweight component suited for residential and light commercial installations.

This fitting is typically installed in plumbing, HVAC condensate, and hydronic piping applications where a 45-degree directional change is required in a 1/4-inch line. It is well suited for service work involving tight mechanical chases, equipment connections, or branch lines where routing constraints prevent the use of a standard 90-degree elbow. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians are the primary installers of this type of fitting.

Key Features

• Lead-free brass construction for potable water compliance
• 45-degree angle for routing in space-constrained installations
• Threaded ends for standard wrench assembly
• Lightweight at 0.09 pounds for easy handling and installation
• 1/4-inch size suits small-bore residential and commercial piping

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for standard 1/4-inch threaded piping systems in plumbing and HVAC applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified HVAC technician in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Shut off the water supply or system pressure and depressurize the line before disassembling any fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly, and tighten with a wrench to a snug fit without over-torquing brass threads. Do not use this fitting to join dissimilar metals without a dielectric union where required by code.
