Midland Industries SS2500-16-16 90-deg Union Elbow Jic

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES SS2500-16-16 is a 90-degree union elbow fitting designed for high-pressure fluid and gas line applications. It connects two 1-inch Male JIC (Joint Industry Council) fittings at a right angle, allowing directional routing in tight plumbing and hydraulic installations. Constructed from 316 stainless steel, this fitting handles a maximum operating pressure of 3000 psi and an operating temperature up to 1000 degrees F. The thread size on both ends is 1-5/16-12 UN. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and hydraulic system technicians are the primary installers of this type of fitting.

This union elbow is suited for industrial, commercial, and heavy-duty fluid system applications where corrosion resistance and high-pressure integrity are required. Typical use cases include hydraulic lines, fuel systems, and process piping where a 90-degree directional change is needed without reducing flow capacity. The symmetrical Male JIC x Male JIC configuration makes it a union-style fitting, meaning it can be disconnected and reconnected at the joint without disturbing the surrounding line. It is part of the SS2500 Series MJIC Union Elbow product family from MIDLAND INDUSTRIES.

Key Features

• 316 stainless steel construction provides strong resistance to corrosion and oxidation at elevated temperatures
• 3000 psi maximum operating pressure rating for demanding hydraulic and fluid system environments
• Rated to 1000 degrees F operating temperature, suitable for high-heat process applications
• 90-degree union elbow design allows directional routing and field disconnection without line disassembly
• Both ends are 1-inch Male JIC with 1-5/16-12 UN thread, ensuring consistent mating with standard JIC fittings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or addition for hydraulic and fluid systems using standard 1-inch Male JIC connections and 1-5/16-12 UN thread fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed pipefitter, plumber, or hydraulic technician familiar with JIC fitting assembly procedures. Always depressurize and isolate the system completely before removing or installing any fitting. JIC fittings rely on metal-to-metal 37-degree flare seating and must be torqued properly without over-tightening to avoid seat damage. Follow applicable codes such as the IPC or relevant hydraulic system standards for your jurisdiction.
