Brass 90° Elbow – Manufactured for High-Performance Pipe Routing

The Brass 90° Elbow is a durable, corrosion-resistant fitting designed for applications requiring a precise 90-degree directional change in fluid or gas conveyance systems. Constructed from high-quality brass, this elbow supports a range of piping configurations and is commonly used where space constraints demand compact, angular transitions.

This fitting is engineered for mechanical integrity, dimensional accuracy, and compatibility with standard NPT threaded connections, making it suitable for both residential and commercial plumbing systems. Its resistance to dezincification and pressure deformation makes it reliable for both hot and cold water distribution.

Key Product Features

• ✅ Material: Forged or cast brass per ASTM standards for mechanical strength and corrosion resistance.
• ✅ Connection: Female National Pipe Thread (FNPT) x Female NPT for seamless inline threading with metallic pipe or fittings.
• ✅ Temperature & Pressure Ratings: Suitable for use in systems rated up to 200 PSI and 180°F depending on pipe material compatibility.
• ✅ Tight Radius Design: Facilitates direction changes in confined installation zones without compromising flow performance.
• ✅ Lead-Free Compliant: Manufactured in compliance with federal lead-free mandates for potable water use.

Common Applications

Used in potable water systems, hydronic heating loops, air distribution networks, and fuel gas systems where reliable 90-degree transitions are required. Frequently installed in mechanical rooms, chase runs, service walls, and utility retrofits where directional changes must be tight and secure.

Installation Requirements

Threaded brass fittings should be installed using an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to ensure leak-tight connections. Apply torque evenly and avoid over-tightening to prevent thread deformation or fitting damage. Proper alignment of mating threads is critical for long-term joint integrity in pressurized systems.

Code Compliance

Meets applicable codes and certifications for use in potable water and gas applications, including ANSI B1.20.1 (threads) and NSF/ANSI 61 or NSF 372 where lead-free compliance is required.

Summary

This Brass 90° Elbow delivers reliable directional control in pipe systems that require durable, corrosion-resistant connections. Built to exacting industry standards, it ensures performance in high-use environments and supports code-compliant installations across multiple disciplines.
