Value Brand 90 Degree Elbow Class 300 2-1/2 in FNPT

ZORO SELECT Malleable Iron Elbow

This ZORO SELECT 90 degree elbow redirects flow in piping systems rated for Class 300 service. The fitting is cast from malleable iron and carries FM Approved and UL Listed marks. It meets ASME B 16.3 and B 16.4 standards as well as ASTM A-197 and ASTM A47 material specifications. The component suits saturated steam up to 300 psi and non-shock cold working pressure of 1000 psi at 150 degrees F.

Verify Pipe Size and Thread Compatibility

Confirm the existing line uses 2-1/2 inch FNPT threads before ordering. The fitting accepts female National Pipe Taper threads on both ends and requires matching male NPT pipe or nipples. Check that system pressure and temperature stay within the rated 1000 psi at 150 degrees F and the -20 to 550 degrees F operating range. Ensure the piping material and joint compound are suitable for malleable iron.

Malleable Iron Construction and Threaded Joints

The malleable iron body resists cracking under mechanical shock and thermal cycling. Tapered FNPT threads create a seal when tightened with appropriate pipe thread sealant. The Class 300 rating supports demanding steam and hydraulic applications. Plan for sufficient wrench clearance around the 90 degree bend during installation and future maintenance.
