This 90-degree forged street elbow pipe fitting is made of forged brass and has a 1/8" female National Pipe Taper (NPT) threaded connection and a 1/8" male NPT threaded connection. This 90-degree reducing street elbow fitting connects two pipes with same diameters, at a 90-degree angle to change the direction of flow between pipes. The NPT threads create a tighter seal than straight threads. This fitting is made of brass for corrosion resistance, ductility at high temperatures, and low magnetic permeability, and it is forged to increase the material's strength and resistance to mechanical shock and vibration.The operating temperatures for this fitting range from -53to 121 degrees C (-65 to 250 degrees F).
Pipe fittings are components used for connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and changing the direction of piping in many different industries. When purchasing pipe fittings, consider the application, as this will affect material type, shape, size, and required durability. Fittings are available threaded or unthreaded, in many shapes, styles, sizes, and schedules (pipe wall thickness).
