Midland Industries 0341608LF 45 Degree Street Elbow Brass 1/2 Inch

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 0341608LF is a 45-degree street elbow fitting manufactured from chrome plated brass in a 1/2 inch size. Street elbows differ from standard elbows in that one end is a male (street) thread and the other is a female thread, allowing direct connection without a coupling. This fitting redirects flow at a 45-degree angle and is commonly used in plumbing and HVAC piping systems where space is limited and a smooth directional change is required. Its lead-free brass construction makes it suitable for potable water applications. Weighing 0.1 pounds, the fitting is compact and easy to handle during installation.

This fitting is used in residential and light commercial plumbing, hydronic heating, and HVAC piping applications. It is well suited for tight-clearance installations where a standard elbow and separate coupling would not fit. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians install this type of fitting when routing pipe through walls, mechanical chases, or near equipment connections that demand a 45-degree directional change.

Key Features

• 45-degree street configuration with one male and one female threaded end
• Chrome plated brass construction suitable for potable water and HVAC use
• 1/2 inch pipe size for common residential and light commercial applications
• Lead-free (LF) designation meets requirements for potable water systems

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/2 inch NPT street elbow replacement or new-install fitting for use in potable water, plumbing, and HVAC piping systems requiring a 45-degree directional change.

Installation Notes

This fitting is typically installed by a licensed plumber or HVAC technician. Shut off and depressurize the water or fluid supply before removing any existing fitting. Apply thread sealant tape or compound to the male threads per local plumbing code requirements before making up the joint. Do not overtighten threaded brass fittings, as brass threads can crack under excessive force.
