Midland Industries 27237 90 Degree Compression Elbow Brass

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 27237 is a 90-degree brass compression elbow assembly designed for use in plumbing and fluid-handling systems where a directional change is needed between a compression connection and a male iron pipe thread. The assembly includes a 27006 sleeve, providing a complete, ready-to-install fitting. The first connection is 1/2 inch compression and the second is 3/8 inch MIP. Constructed from brass, this elbow offers reliable corrosion resistance and durability in both potable water and general plumbing applications. Plumbers and pipefitters working on residential or light commercial supply lines will find this fitting a practical solution for tight routing scenarios.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing installations where a compression-to-male-pipe-thread transition is required at a 90-degree angle. It falls within the special compression assemblies category and is classified as a self-aligning male elbow, making it useful in applications where minor angular adjustments during installation improve joint integrity. Typical use cases include supply line connections at fixtures, valves, and shutoffs.

Key Features

• 90-degree elbow configuration allows directional routing in tight spaces
• 1/2 inch compression inlet paired with 3/8 inch MIP outlet for common plumbing transitions
• Includes 27006 sleeve for a complete, ready-to-install assembly
• Brass construction provides corrosion resistance for water service applications
• Self-aligning male elbow design accommodates minor angular adjustment during installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for plumbing systems requiring a 1/2 inch compression to 3/8 inch male iron pipe thread transition at a 90-degree angle.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before beginning work. Do not overtighten compression fittings, as brass threads and ferrules can be damaged by excessive force. Verify thread compatibility and compression tube diameter before final assembly.
