1/2 in 304 Stainless Street Elbow
This 90° street elbow changes flow direction in piping systems. It connects a male NPT end directly to a female NPT fitting or pipe, removing the need for a separate nipple. The 304 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance for plumbing, HVAC, and industrial applications.
Sustained Pressure And Temperature Performance
The fitting complies with ASTM-A-182 material standards and meets ASME B16.11 for forged fittings. Threads conform to ANSI/ASME B1.20.1, ensuring a reliable seal under continuous operating conditions. 304 stainless steel maintains structural integrity across the rated pressure and temperature ranges without degradation.
Simple Threaded Installation
Installation requires only standard NPT threading practice with appropriate sealant applied by the installer. No pre-applied thread sealant is included, so tape or compound must be supplied separately. Over-tightening tapered pipe threads can stress the fitting; correct engagement avoids leaks and prevents cracked ports.

Questions about this item
Will the 304 stainless steel street elbow leak or corrode when the system runs continuously at 90 °C?
The 304 stainless steel construction resists corrosion at elevated temperatures, and the ASTM-A-182 material standard confirms suitability for continuous hot-water or steam service.
Do I need to buy pipe thread sealant or a short nipple to install this 1/2 inch male-by-female elbow?
No pre-applied sealant is included, so you must supply PTFE tape or pipe dope; the street design eliminates the need for a separate nipple.
Can I thread this ANSI/ASME B1.20.1 elbow directly onto my existing galvanised steel pipe without adapters?
Yes, the tapered NPT threads conform to ANSI/ASME B1.20.1, matching standard galvanised or black-iron pipe threads for a direct seal.
