Value Collection 6LB901/8 1/8 in 316 Ss Pipe 90 Elbow

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 6LB901/8 is a 90-degree pipe elbow fitting designed for threaded piping systems requiring reliable directional change in tight quarters. Manufactured from 316 stainless steel, this fitting handles a pressure rating of 150 psi and uses female NPT connections on both ends, making it a standard choice for corrosion-resistant fluid and gas distribution lines. The 1/8-inch fitting size suits small-bore piping runs common in industrial, commercial, and mechanical service applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting wherever a 90-degree change of direction is needed in a threaded iron or stainless pipe system.

This elbow is suited for Schedule 40 piping systems in residential, commercial, and light industrial environments. It is commonly installed in water supply lines, compressed air systems, and chemical or process piping where corrosion resistance is a priority. The 316 stainless steel construction offers enhanced resistance to chlorides and other corrosive media compared to standard 304 stainless, making it appropriate for marine, food service, and chemical processing installations.

• 150 psi pressure rating suitable for Schedule 40 applications
• 1/8-inch fitting size for small-bore piping systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for Schedule 40 threaded piping systems using 1/8-inch pipe size with female NPT connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing codes. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly — do not over-tighten, as stainless fittings can gall under excessive torque. Inspect threads on mating pipe for damage before assembly to ensure a leak-free seal.
