1-1/2 inch Galvanized Iron 90 Degree Elbow Female x Female

1-1/2" Galvanized Iron 90° Elbow – Threaded Fitting for Directional Piping Transitions

The 1-1/2" Galvanized Iron 90° Elbow is manufactured for structural and plumbing applications requiring a robust, corrosion-resistant fitting for directional changes. It provides a 90-degree turn for threaded pipe systems, maintaining system flow integrity in confined or high-exposure environments.

Constructed from galvanized malleable iron, this fitting offers high mechanical strength and superior resistance to rust, making it suitable for a variety of fluid transport and support system installations in industrial, commercial, and residential settings.

Professional Advantages

• ✅ Corrosion-Resistant Finish Hot-dip galvanized coating enhances durability in moisture-prone or exposed conditions.
• ✅ Threaded Ends NPT threads ensure compatibility with standard schedule 40 or 80 pipe, facilitating leak-resistant assembly without welding.
• ✅ High Load Capacity Suitable for systems subjected to vibration, pressure variation, and frequent directional changes.
• ✅ Standards Compliance Manufactured to meet or exceed ASTM A197 and ANSI/ASME B16.3 dimensional tolerances.
• ✅ Efficient Alignment Allows for consistent pipe direction changes with minimal rework or realignment on site.

Common Applications

Utilized in water supply, compressed air lines, non-potable drainage systems, and steel structure bracing. This elbow fitting is appropriate for indoor and outdoor installations, including service drops, mechanical rooms, and industrial process piping where directional control is critical.

Material Performance

Galvanized malleable iron provides a balance of tensile strength and corrosion resistance, particularly valuable in systems exposed to fluctuating temperatures and environmental conditions. The protective zinc coating mitigates oxidation, extending fitting service life.

Installation Guidelines

Thread sealant or PTFE tape should be applied to male threads to ensure a tight, leak-free connection. Use calibrated torque to avoid thread deformation. Compatible with pipe wrenches or mechanical coupling systems as permitted by design.
