Value Collection 6LB901/4 90 Elbow 1/4 in Fnpt 316 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 6LB901/4 is a 90-degree threaded pipe elbow designed for use in plumbing, industrial piping, and fluid-handling systems where corrosion resistance is critical. Constructed from 316 stainless steel, this Schedule 40 fitting connects two pipe runs at a right angle using female NPT (FNPT) threads on both ends. It carries a pressure rating of 150 psi, making it appropriate for moderate-pressure liquid and gas service. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting when routing pipe around obstructions or making directional changes in a run. The 1/4-inch fitting size suits small-bore lines common in instrumentation, chemical feed, and compressed-air applications.

This elbow is suited for residential and light commercial piping systems, as well as industrial process lines where 316 stainless steel is specified for its resistance to chlorides and corrosive media. The FNPT x FNPT connection allows it to thread directly onto male-threaded pipe or nipples without additional adapters. Typical install scenarios include chemical dosing lines, food-service equipment piping, marine plumbing, and any application requiring a sanitary or corrosion-resistant material. It is sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 2 units.

Key Features

• 316 stainless steel construction for strong resistance to corrosion and chlorides
• FNPT x FNPT threaded connection on both ends for straightforward installation on male-threaded pipe
• 150 psi pressure rating suitable for moderate-pressure service
• Schedule 40 wall thickness for standard-duty piping applications
• 90-degree angle for directional changes in tight piping layouts
• 1/4-inch fitting size for small-bore instrumentation and process lines

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting compatible with standard 1/4-inch Schedule 40 threaded pipe systems using NPT connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC and IFGC requirements. Shut off and depressurize the line fully before disassembling any existing fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly to ensure a leak-free connection. Do not over-tighten threaded stainless steel fittings, as galling of the threads can occur.
