Midland Industries 44131LF Bronze 90 Degree Elbow 1x3/4

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 44131LF is a lead-free bronze 90-degree elbow fitting designed for use in residential and light commercial plumbing systems. This reducing elbow connects 1-inch to 3/4-inch pipe runs, allowing directional changes while stepping down pipe size in a single fitting. The lead-free bronze construction meets drinking water standards, making it appropriate for potable water supply lines. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting during new construction, remodel work, and service repairs where a 90-degree change in direction and a pipe size reduction are needed at the same junction.

This elbow fitting is suited for potable water distribution, hot and cold supply lines, and general plumbing applications where a reducing 90-degree turn is required. The 1-inch by 3/4-inch configuration is a common size pairing found in residential water supply systems, particularly at branch takeoffs from main distribution lines. It is appropriate for use in both above-ground and accessible in-wall installations where applicable code allows bronze fittings.

Key Features

• Lead-free bronze construction meets drinking water safety requirements
• 90-degree elbow with reducing configuration — 1 inch inlet to 3/4 inch outlet

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting compatible with standard 1-inch by 3/4-inch threaded or sweat connections in residential and light commercial potable water plumbing systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before cutting into any existing pipe. Use appropriate thread sealant or solder technique based on the connection type of this fitting. Inspect the joint for leaks after restoring pressure.
