Brass Bushing 90 Degree Street Elbow Adapter Set

• The 90-degree street elbow pipe fitting, constructed from brass, features a female National Pipe Taper (NPT) threaded connection on one end and a male NPT threaded connection on the other. This fitting facilitates the connection of two pipes at a 90-degree angle, with one pipe having a male end and the other a female end, thereby redirecting the flow between the pipes. The female NPT threads on one end and male threads on the other allow for easy connection between a male and female threaded pipe, ensuring a tight seal due to the NPT threading. Brass material is chosen for its corrosion-resistant properties, ductility at high temperatures, and low magnetic permeability.

• Pipe fittings play a crucial role in various industries by connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and altering the direction of piping. It is important to consider the specific application when selecting pipe fittings, as factors such as material type, shape, size, and durability requirements can vary. Fittings come in threaded or unthreaded options, with a wide range of shapes, styles, sizes, and schedules (pipe wall thickness) available.

• Specifications for this particular fitting include a maximum working pressure of up to 1200psi, an Inch measurement system, a round item shape, and a brass material construction. The package includes a 1/4" NPT barstock street elbow and a 3/8" NPT male x 1/4" NPT female bushing. The street elbow enables the connection of male-ended and female-ended pipes at a 90-degree angle, while the brass bushing adapts NPT male to NPT female thread with different sizes.

• Operating temperatures for this fitting range from -53 to 121 degrees C (-65 to 250 degrees F), making it suitable for a variety of applications. The brass material provides excellent corrosion resistance, ductility at high temperatures, and low magnetic permeability, ensuring reliable performance in challenging environments.
