Street Elbow vs. Standard 90 Degree Elbow
Street Elbow
A street elbow uses one male NPT connection and one female NPT connection, allowing it to connect directly into another female-threaded component.
Standard 90° Elbow
A standard threaded 90° elbow typically uses female threaded connections on both ends and may require an additional nipple when joining another female-threaded fitting.
Typical Applications
Plumbing & Water Systems
- Potable water piping
- Residential plumbing
- Commercial plumbing
- Water distribution systems
- Valve and fixture connections
Commercial & Industrial
- Industrial piping systems
- Mechanical piping layouts
- Equipment connections
- Maintenance and repair
- Compact threaded piping assemblies
Size Selection
Midland Bronze 90 Degree Street Elbows are available in multiple nominal pipe sizes.
Confirm the required nominal pipe size and verify that the male and female NPT connections match the mating components before ordering.
Our pipe and fitting specialists can help review your nominal pipe size, male and female NPT connections, system media, pressure, temperature, and routing requirements before you order.

What is a 90 degree street elbow used for?
It is used to change the direction of a threaded piping system by 90° while providing one male and one female threaded connection.
What material is this fitting made from?
It is manufactured from cast bronze.
What type of connections does it use?
It uses one male NPT connection and one female NPT connection.
Why is it called a street elbow?
A street elbow has one male threaded end and one female threaded end, allowing it to connect directly into another female-threaded fitting.
How is it different from a standard 90 degree elbow?
A standard threaded 90° elbow typically has female threaded connections on both ends, while a street elbow combines one male and one female connection.
Does it require a separate nipple?
Not necessarily. The male end can connect directly into a compatible female-threaded component, which may eliminate the need for a separate nipple.
Should thread sealant be used?
Use an appropriate pipe-thread sealant or PTFE tape on NPT connections according to the application requirements.
Can this fitting be used in potable water systems?
The supplied product information identifies potable water applications. Confirm that the specific selected fitting meets the requirements of your installation.
Are multiple sizes available?
Yes. The supplied product information identifies multiple nominal pipe sizes.
What should I verify before ordering?
Confirm nominal pipe size, male and female NPT compatibility, system pressure, temperature, media compatibility, and required piping direction.
