Value Collection 4LB4511/2 1-1/2 in 304 Ss 45 Elbow Fnpt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 4LB4511/2 is a 45-degree pipe elbow fitting designed for threaded piping systems requiring a directional change at a 45-degree angle. Constructed from 304 stainless steel and rated to 150 psi, this fitting uses female NPT (FNPT) connections on both ends and is compatible with Schedule 40 pipe. At 1-1/2 inches, it suits a wide range of plumbing, HVAC, and light industrial piping configurations. Plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting where flow direction must be altered without a sharp 90-degree turn, reducing turbulence and pressure loss in the line.

This elbow fitting is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, hydronic heating systems, and general industrial piping where corrosion resistance and moderate pressure ratings are required. The 304 stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for wet or mildly corrosive environments. It is sold individually and is a practical replacement or addition in any threaded pipe assembly using 1-1/2-inch Schedule 40 pipe.

Key Features

• 45-degree elbow geometry reduces flow turbulence compared to 90-degree fittings
• 304 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet and mildly aggressive environments
• FNPT x FNPT threaded end connections for tool-based installation without welding or soldering
• 150 psi pressure rating suitable for a broad range of plumbing and HVAC applications
• Schedule 40 compatible for standard residential and commercial pipe systems
• 1-1/2-inch fitting size covers common branch and main line diameters in trade work

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style threaded replacement fitting for 1-1/2-inch Schedule 40 piping systems using standard NPT thread forms.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or threading any fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before making up the connection. Do not overtighten threaded stainless steel fittings, as galling can occur.
