2-inch 45° Bronze Street Elbow
This 2-inch 45-degree bronze street elbow connects female NPT to male NPT threads in potable-water and hydronic systems. The no-lead bronze alloy meets low-lead requirements for drinking-water installations. It is suited for plumbing contractors and maintenance crews working on supply lines or manifold assemblies.
No-lead replacement for standard bronze elbows
Use this fitting when local codes or project specifications demand no-lead bronze instead of traditional alloys. The change is worth it on any new installation or retrofit that must comply with Proposition 65 warnings and federal low-lead mandates. Existing standard-bronze elbows in service do not require replacement unless the system is being altered.
Simple threaded installation
Apply thread sealant or tape to the male threads, then tighten the joint to the specified torque for 2-inch NPT. The street-elbow design lets the male end enter a female fitting directly, reducing the number of joints. The most common issue is cross-threading or insufficient sealant, which can cause leaks at the connection.

Questions about this item
What pipe thread size does the 2" 45° bronze street elbow require for a proper fit?
The elbow uses 2" FNPT x MNPT threads, so both the female and male ends must match that same 2" NPT size for a leak-free connection.
How do I install the street elbow without damaging the no-lead bronze threads?
Apply PTFE tape or pipe dope to the male threads only, hand-tighten, then finish with a wrench no more than one to two turns past hand-tight to avoid cracking the bronze.
When should I plan to replace the 45° street elbow in a potable-water system?
Inspect annually for green patina, pitting or seepage at the joint; replace the fitting if corrosion appears or after any freeze-thaw cycle that stresses the bronze body.
