Bmi Usa 6371 Brass Street 90 Elbow 1/8 Inch Lead Free

Product Description

The BMI USA 6371 is a lead-free brass street 90-degree elbow fitting designed for use in threaded pipe systems. Street elbows accept a male thread on one end and a female thread on the other, allowing a direct connection without a separate nipple. Made from brass, this fitting delivers reliable sealing and corrosion resistance in plumbing and HVAC piping applications. At 0.06 pounds, it is a compact, lightweight fitting suited for tight spaces. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians rely on street elbows like this to make directional changes in threaded pipe runs efficiently.

This fitting is sized for 1/8-inch threaded pipe connections, making it appropriate for low-flow lines, instrument ports, pilot gas lines, gauge connections, and similar small-diameter applications in both residential and light commercial systems. Its lead-free brass construction makes it suitable for potable water applications where lead-free compliance is required by local plumbing codes.

Key Features

• Lead-free brass construction meets modern plumbing code requirements for potable water systems
• Street configuration with male and female threaded ends eliminates the need for an additional nipple
• 90-degree turn enables directional changes in compact or confined pipe runs
• 1/8-inch pipe thread size fits gauge ports, pilot lines, and small-diameter instrument connections
• Lightweight at 0.06 pounds for easy handling and installation in tight spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style threaded fitting replacement for 1/8-inch NPT applications in residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC, and gas piping systems where lead-free brass street elbows are required.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water or gas supply and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly, and tighten with a pipe wrench to a snug, leak-free fit without overtightening. Pressure-test the connection after installation to confirm no leaks are present.
