1-1/2 inch Carbon Steel Water Press 90 Degree Street Elbow Press x Fitting

1-1/2 Inch Carbon Steel Press 90° Street Elbow – Press x Fitting Connection

The 1-1/2 inch carbon steel press 90-degree street elbow (press x fitting) is engineered to support directional changes in press-fit piping systems. This fitting combines a standard elbow with a spigot end, allowing direct insertion into another fitting, which simplifies layout and reduces the need for additional couplings.

Technical Construction and Performance Benefits

This elbow is fabricated from carbon steel for durability in high-pressure environments. It features press-fit ends manufactured to tight tolerances, ensuring joint integrity when installed using compatible mechanical press tools.

• ✅ Formed Carbon Steel Body Provides high mechanical strength and dimensional reliability.
• ✅ Spigot-End Design Enables direct fitting-to-fitting connections, reducing installation time and component count.
• ✅ Hydraulic Efficiency Maintains flow with minimal pressure drop at the 90° transition point.
• ✅ Leak-Resistant Geometry Press collars engineered for consistent tool engagement and long-term seal integrity.
• ✅ System Compatibility Suitable for use in potable water and mechanical systems using press-joint technology.

Technical Specifications

• Material: Carbon Steel
• Size: 1-1/2 Inch
• Connection Type: Press x Spigot (Street Elbow)
• Compliance: Conforms to applicable plumbing and mechanical standards for water systems

Installation Guidelines

Installation should be performed with approved press-fit tooling specific to the fitting’s diameter and profile. Pipe and fitting ends must be cut clean, deburred, and cleaned prior to pressing. The spigot end allows direct insertion into another press fitting, simplifying transitions in compact layouts.

Application Use

This street elbow is commonly used in domestic and commercial pressurized water systems, including potable water distribution and hydronic heating loops. Its street configuration is especially beneficial in confined spaces or complex routing conditions where traditional elbows may require additional fittings.

Material and System Insight

Carbon steel is selected for its ability to withstand internal pressures and temperature fluctuations. Its strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance make it well suited for press-joint water systems in residential, commercial, and industrial installations.
