STREET ELBOWS
Street Elbows are specialized pipe fittings designed to connect a pipe to another fitting at an angle, typically 90°, with one end featuring external (male) threading and the other internal (female) threading, enabling versatile connections in plumbing and piping systems.
Street Elbows are critical for applications requiring a compact, threaded connection to redirect flow. Available in materials like carbon steel, stainless steel, brass, and alloy steel, they are engineered to handle various pressure, temperature, and corrosion conditions.
Street Elbows are essential for creating efficient and adaptable piping networks, particularly in tight spaces where threaded connections are preferred. Their unique male-to-female thread design allows for direct connection between pipes and fittings without additional adapters, making them ideal for plumbing, gas lines, and industrial systems.
STREET ELBOWS are categorized based on angle, material, and thread type to meet specific application requirements.
Type | Description | Application |
---|---|---|
90° Street Elbow | Facilitates a 90-degree change in direction with male and female threads. | Plumbing, gas lines, and HVAC systems. |
45° Street Elbow | Provides a 45-degree turn for smoother flow transitions in threaded systems. | Water supply and low-pressure piping. |
Brass Street Elbow | Corrosion-resistant, ideal for water and gas applications. | Residential plumbing and heating systems. |
Stainless Steel Street Elbow | High durability and corrosion resistance for harsh environments. | Chemical processing and marine applications. |
Street Elbows are widely used in various industries due to their compact design and threaded connectivity:
