Brass Pipe Fitting, Class 125, 90 Degree Elbow, 1/4" NPT Male x 1/4" NPT Female

This 90-degree street elbow is a class 125 brass pipe fitting with female National Pipe Taper (NPT) threads on one end and male NPT threads on the other end for connecting different types of pipes and fittings. The 90-degree elbow changes flow direction between pipes and has NPT threading for creating tighter seals than straight threads. The class 125 fitting is made from brass, which is more economical, machinable, and offers greater corrosion resistance than steel. Class is a standard relating to tolerance, construction, dimension, and wall thickness, but it is not a direct measurement of maximum working pressure. This fitting meets standards ANSI/ASME B16.15, ASME B1.20.1, ASTM B584, and ALLOY C83600 for quality assurance.

Pipe fittings are components used for connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and changing the direction of piping in many different industries. When purchasing pipe fittings, consider the application, as this will affect material type, shape, size and required durability. Fittings are available threaded or unthreaded, in many shapes, styles, sizes, and schedules (pipe wall thickness).
