Value Collection -12145-2 90 Degree Elbow 3/8 Inch Npt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION -12145-2 is a 3/8 inch NPT 90 degree pipe elbow designed for high-pressure piping systems carrying liquids or gases. Forged from carbon steel with a black finish, this fitting is rated to 3000 psi and meets Class 3000 standards, making it suitable for demanding industrial and mechanical applications. The 90 degree angle allows for direction changes in tight pipe runs. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors are the typical installers for this type of fitting.

This elbow is used in residential and commercial piping systems where a 90 degree change of direction is required on a 3/8 inch line. Common applications include gas distribution lines, hydraulic systems, steam lines, and compressed air systems where high-pressure forged fittings are specified. The NPT threaded end connections make it compatible with standard tapered thread pipe configurations found throughout industrial and mechanical piping work.

• Class 3000 forged carbon steel construction rated to 3000 psi
• 3/8 inch NPT threaded end connections for standard tapered thread compatibility
• 90 degree elbow geometry for direction changes in pressurized pipe runs
• Black finish for corrosion resistance in typical service environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 3/8 inch NPT threaded pipe systems requiring a Class 3000 forged carbon steel 90 degree elbow.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the International Plumbing Code or International Fuel Gas Code. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the NPT threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as this can damage the fitting or mating pipe threads.
