Product Benefits/Features

This Steel Street Elbow offers exceptional versatility and durability, distinguishing it from lesser pipe fittings. One of the primary benefits of using stainless steel fittings is their inherent resistance to corrosion and oxidation, which is critical when the fittings are exposed to harsh chemicals or moisture.

The 90 degree street elbow design allows for a direct connection between a female port and a male pipe, eliminating the need for a nipple and reducing potential leak points. This 90 degree street elbow is precision-machined to ensure that the NPT threads engage smoothly and seal tightly, protecting your equipment from pressure loss. Because these fittings are made from stainless steel, they maintain their structural integrity over time, meaning you won't have to replace them as frequently as other fittings.

• Corrosion Resistance: The stainless steel construction ensures these fittings withstand harsh environments better than standard steel.

• Space Efficiency: The compact 90 degree street elbow design is perfect for installations where space is limited and directions must change.

• High Pressure Rating: Rated for 4000 PSI, this item handles high-stress industrial applications with ease.

• Precision Threads: Features accurately machined NPT threads for secure connections with other pipe fittings.

• Versatile Application: Suitable for water, oil, and air systems, making these stainless steel fittings a universal solution.

• Cost-Effective: While prices for stainless steel can be higher, the longevity of these fittings offers better long-term value.

Installation and Reliability

Installing the Steel Street Elbow is a straightforward process, but proper technique is essential to ensure the longevity of your fittings. Begin by cleaning the threads of the 90 degree street elbow and the mating pipe fittings to remove any debris.

Apply a suitable thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male NPT threads of the street elbow to ensure a watertight seal. Hand-tighten the fittings first, then use a wrench to tighten them further, ensuring the outlet faces the desired direction—whether left, right, or vertical. Be careful not to over-tighten, as even stainless steel fittings can be damaged by excessive force. Once installed, check for leaks by pressurizing the system.
