1-1/2 inch Galvanized Iron 45 Degree Elbow Female x Female

1-1/2” Galvanized Iron 45° Elbow – Precision-Fabricated for Directional Flow Control

The 1-1/2” Galvanized Iron 45 Degree Elbow is engineered for directional changes in rigid piping systems where corrosion resistance and joint integrity are critical. Manufactured to meet industry dimensional and performance standards, this elbow facilitates a smooth redirection of flow with minimal turbulence.

Constructed from galvanized malleable iron, it provides enhanced resistance to rust and mechanical wear in water distribution, air lines, and process piping. The hot-dip zinc coating acts as a protective barrier in environments where exposure to moisture and condensation is expected.

Performance Features

• ✅ Galvanized Iron Body: Hot-dip coated for corrosion protection in wet, humid, or mildly abrasive service conditions.
• ✅ Precision Threading: Female NPT threads on both ends allow for secure mating with other threaded components without cross-threading.
• ✅ 45° Directional Transition: Provides angular deviation in systems without compromising flow performance or structural stability.
• ✅ Code-Compliant Design: Manufactured to conform with ANSI/ASME B16.3 and B1.20.1 standards for malleable iron threaded fittings.
• ✅ Multi-Application Suitability: Used in potable water systems, fire protection loops, and air distribution piping.

Technical Specifications

• Material: Galvanized Malleable Iron
• Nominal Size: 1-1/2 inch
• Connection Type: FNPT x FNPT (Female National Pipe Thread)
• Bend Angle: 45 Degrees

Installation Guidelines

Intended for use by licensed professionals, this elbow fitting should be installed using approved thread sealant to ensure leak-free performance. Proper thread engagement and torque application are essential for pressure retention. Always verify compatibility with surrounding materials and system pressure ratings.

Typical Applications

This 45° elbow is integrated into rigid piping layouts where directional shifts are needed without the space constraints of full 90° fittings. Frequently specified in both vertical and horizontal runs across commercial, institutional, and residential mechanical systems.

Material Insight

Galvanized iron fittings are selected for their load-bearing capacity and rust resistance, particularly in above-ground systems exposed to atmospheric moisture or low-pressure water conveyance.

The 1-1/2” Galvanized Iron 45 Degree Elbow provides dependable directional routing in corrosion-prone environments. Its robust fabrication and dimensional reliability make it a trusted component in long-term system builds.
