1-1/2 inch Black Iron 90° Elbow – Industrial-Grade Fitting for High-Performance Systems

The 1-1/2 inch Black Iron 90 Degree Elbow is engineered to deliver consistent performance in piping layouts where directional changes are required. Fabricated from malleable iron and designed to ANSI and ASME specifications, this elbow ensures structural strength and leak-tight connections for air, gas, water, and oil systems.

Whether used in commercial mechanical rooms or industrial installations, this fitting provides a secure and corrosion-resistant joint, meeting rigorous demands for reliability and long service life.

Performance Features

• ✅ High-Strength Malleable Iron – Manufactured in accordance with ASTM A197 standards for strength and pressure tolerance.
• ✅ Corrosion-Resistant Black Finish – Black oxide coating offers basic protection during storage and installation in dry systems.
• ✅ Precision-Cut NPT Threads – Threaded to ANSI/ASME B1.20.1 specifications for tight, leak-resistant mating with standard steel pipe.
• ✅ Pressure Rated for Demanding Applications – Withstands up to 300 PSI for air/water/oil and 150 PSI for saturated steam (non-shock).
• ✅ UL and FM Listings – Suitable for use in fire protection systems, pending local authority approval.

Technical Specifications

• Material: Malleable Iron (ASTM A197)
• Size: 1-1/2 inch nominal pipe size
• Angle: 90 degrees
• Thread Type: Female NPT
• Pressure Rating: 300 PSI (non-shock) for liquid and gas systems

Applications

This elbow is commonly deployed in hydronic heating systems, compressed air lines, steam systems, and natural gas installations. It allows for efficient redirection of flow without compromising integrity or introducing unnecessary fittings, especially in tight mechanical spaces.

Field Note

Always use compatible thread sealant (pipe dope or Teflon tape) to ensure gas-tight or watertight connections. Over-torquing should be avoided to prevent thread distortion or joint failure.

Designed for professional-grade applications, the 1-1/2 inch Black Iron 90 Degree Elbow provides a durable solution for directional changes in pressurized systems. Its compatibility with Schedule 40 steel pipe makes it a fundamental component in structural and fluid handling networks.
