Value Collection BD--12144-5 45 Degree Elbow 1 Inch Npt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD--12144-5 is a forged carbon steel 45 degree elbow fitting designed for high-pressure piping systems in industrial, mechanical, and commercial applications. Built to Class 3000 standards with a pressure rating of 3000 psi, this fitting handles demanding liquid and gas service with reliable structural integrity. The black finish is standard for carbon steel fittings of this type. NPT end connections provide a tapered thread seal compatible with pipe and fittings across most trade plumbing and gas piping assemblies. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this type of fitting.

This elbow is suited for redirecting flow at a 45 degree angle in 1-inch diameter piping runs. It is commonly used in industrial process piping, mechanical room headers, commercial plumbing, and compressed gas distribution where Class 3000 strength is required. The forged construction provides greater density and strength compared to cast alternatives, making it appropriate for elevated pressure and temperature applications in both above-ground and in-wall piping systems.

Key Features

• Forged carbon steel construction for high-density strength
• Class 3000 pressure rating at 3000 psi for demanding liquid and gas service
• 45 degree angle redirects flow while minimizing pressure drop compared to a 90 degree elbow
• NPT threaded end connections for standard tapered thread fitment
• Black finish standard for carbon steel pipe fittings
• 1-inch fitting size fits standard 1-inch nominal pipe

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style threaded fitting replacement or new-install component for 1-inch NPT piping systems requiring Class 3000 forged carbon steel elbows in liquid or gas service.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local mechanical and plumbing codes, including IPC and IFGC where gas service is involved. Shut off and depressurize the piping system fully before disassembling any threaded connections. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to NPT threads before assembly, and do not overtighten, which can crack fittings or distort threads. Verify system pressure rating and fluid compatibility before returning the line to service.
