Description
150# Galvanized Malleable Iron 90° Street Elbow
150# galvanized malleable iron 90-degree street elbows change the direction of threaded piping by 90 degrees while providing one male NPT connection and one female NPT connection. The street configuration allows the male end to thread directly into a female fitting, valve, manifold, or equipment port without requiring a separate pipe nipple.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a galvanized 90-degree street elbow used for?
It changes the direction of a threaded piping run by 90 degrees while connecting one female-threaded component to one male-threaded component.
What thread configuration does it have?
It has one male NPT connection and one female NPT connection of the same nominal pipe size.
How is a street elbow different from a standard elbow?
A standard elbow has female threads on both ends. A street elbow has one male end and one female end, allowing direct connection to another female-threaded component without a nipple.
What pressure class is this fitting?
This galvanized malleable iron street elbow is manufactured as a 150# or Class 150 threaded fitting.
What sizes are available?
Available product variations range from 1/8" through 6" nominal pipe size.
Can it be used with galvanized steel pipe and fittings?
Yes. It is designed for compatible NPT-threaded galvanized pipe, pipe nipples, valves, fittings, and approved equipment connections.
Does the galvanized finish improve corrosion resistance?
Yes. The galvanized finish provides added corrosion resistance compared with an unfinished black fitting, although suitability still depends on the environment, piping media, temperature, and application.
Should thread sealant be used?
Use an approved pipe-thread sealant or thread tape on the male NPT connections, selected for the piping media, pressure, temperature, applicable codes, and manufacturer recommendations.
