Value Collection 4LB451/8 45 Degree Pipe Elbow 1/8 in Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 4LB451/8 is a 45-degree pipe elbow fitting designed for threaded pipe systems requiring a direction change at a 45-degree angle. Manufactured from 304 stainless steel, this fitting offers corrosion resistance suitable for a range of fluid and gas piping applications. It features female NPT (FNPT) connections on both ends and is rated for 150 psi working pressure. The fitting meets Schedule 40 standards and is sized for 1/8 inch pipe. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors use this type of elbow when routing small-bore piping through tight or angled runs.

This elbow is suited for residential and light commercial piping installations where 1/8 inch threaded connections are required. The 304 stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for applications where mild corrosion resistance is needed, such as water lines, instrumentation tubing, and general process piping. The FNPT x FNPT configuration accepts standard male NPT pipe threads on both ends, making it compatible with a wide range of NPT-threaded pipe, valves, and fittings commonly found in plumbing and mechanical systems.

Key Features

• 45-degree elbow geometry for angled pipe routing in tight installations
• 304 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet or humid environments
• FNPT x FNPT threaded connections accept standard male NPT pipe threads on both ends
• 150 psi pressure rating suitable for low-to-moderate pressure systems
• Schedule 40 wall thickness for standard service conditions
• 1/8 inch fitting size for small-bore piping applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard threaded replacement fitting for 1/8 inch NPT piping systems using Schedule 40 stainless steel components rated at 150 psi.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. 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 male NPT threads before make-up to ensure a leak-free joint. Tighten to hand-tight plus the number of turns appropriate for the pipe size, and verify the system for leaks before returning it to service.
