ASC Engineered Solutions 311028005 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the ASC Engineered Solutions 1-1/2 inch galvanized 45 degree street elbow male on one end and female on the other?
Yes. It is a street elbow, so one end is MPT and the other is FPT, both at 1-1/2 inch. That lets you thread it straight into a female fitting or valve port without an extra nipple, then pick up 1-1/2 inch male pipe thread on the other side. If you need two female ends, you want a standard 45 elbow instead, not the street pattern.
2) Will this 45 degree street elbow thread onto standard NPT pipe?
Threads are cut to ASME B1.20.1, the NPT standard, so it mates with any 1-1/2 inch NPT pipe, nipple or fitting. Use pipe dope or PTFE tape on the male end as you would with any tapered thread joint.
3) Is this galvanized malleable iron 45 elbow UL listed and FM approved for fire sprinkler work?
Yes, the fitting carries UL/FM recognition, which is what a sprinkler contractor needs for threaded fire protection piping. It is standard weight malleable iron to ASTM A-197 with pressure rating per ASME B16.3.
4) Can I use a galvanized malleable iron 45 elbow on a wet or outdoor line?
The galvanizing is a hot dip coating to ASTM A-153, which is the spec for hardware dipped after fabrication, so it holds up in damp, outdoor and exposed service far better than black iron. Pair it with galvanized pipe and galvanized nipples so you are not mixing coated and uncoated steel in the same run.
5) Why pick a 45 degree elbow over two 90s when routing 1-1/2 inch pipe?
A 45 turns the line half as sharply, so you lose less pressure and it is the usual way to offset around an obstruction or come off a header at an angle. The street version here saves a nipple because the MPT end screws directly into the next female port. For a full right angle turn you still want a 90.
6) How much does the 1-1/2 inch galvanized 45 street elbow weigh for takeoff and hanger spacing?
1.27 lbs each. Worth adding in when you are counting a lot of fittings into a run and sizing supports, since malleable iron fittings weigh noticeably more than the pipe they sit on.
