Matco-norca mn-ft3lst9004 Forged Steel Street 90 Elbow 3/4 in

Product Description

The MATCO-NORCA mn-ft3lst9004 is a forged steel threaded street 90-degree elbow rated for Class 3000 service. Street elbows combine a male threaded end with a female threaded end in a single fitting, eliminating the need for a separate nipple in tight-space installations. This fitting is designed for use in high-pressure piping systems where a 90-degree direction change is required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in steam, water, oil, and gas piping applications. The Class 3000 pressure rating suits demanding industrial and commercial service conditions.

This elbow is suited for residential and commercial piping systems requiring a 3/4-inch threaded connection at a 90-degree angle. Typical applications include steam distribution lines, hydraulic systems, compressed air piping, and industrial process piping where space constraints make a street configuration preferable to a standard elbow-and-nipple combination. The forged steel construction handles elevated pressures and temperatures common in these service environments.

Key Features

• Street configuration with one male and one female threaded end for compact installation
• Class 3000 pressure rating for high-pressure service applications
• Forged steel construction for strength and durability under thermal and mechanical stress
• 3/4-inch pipe size for standard threaded piping connections
• 90-degree turn for direction changes in tight or confined piping runs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 3/4-inch threaded pipe systems rated to Class 3000 service conditions.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable local codes and IFGC or IPC requirements depending on service type. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as forged steel fittings can crack cast or softer mating components if excessive torque is applied.
