ASC Engineered Solutions 310027206 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will this 1/2 inch black malleable iron 45 street ell thread onto standard 1/2 inch black pipe?
Yes. Both ends are 1/2 inch and the threads are cut to ASME B1.20.1, which is standard NPT taper thread, so it mates with any 1/2 inch NPT black steel pipe, nipple, or fitting. The female side takes a male pipe end; the male side threads into a female port such as a tee, coupling, or valve.
2) What pressure class is this malleable iron street elbow, and what standard does it meet?
It is a standard (STD) class fitting, dimensioned and pressure rated to ASME B16.3, the malleable iron threaded fittings standard. The iron itself is made to ASTM A-197. If your drawing calls for a 300 class or extra heavy fitting, this STD fitting is not the one to substitute.
3) Can I use a black malleable iron street elbow on a gas line?
Black malleable iron 45 street ells of this type are the usual fitting for black iron gas piping and other non-corrosive service such as steam, air, and hydronic heating. The black finish is uncoated, so keep it off potable water and out of wet or buried locations, where galvanized or another material is the right call. Local gas code governs the final approval on any fuel gas run.
4) Does this street elbow follow standard fitting dimensions so it drops into a spec'd layout?
It is dimensioned to ASME B16.3, so the center-to-end and thread engagement match any other B16.3 malleable iron 45 street ell in 1/2 inch. That means you can lay it out from the standard takeoff figures and swap it for another compliant brand without redoing the run.
5) Do I need thread sealant with this street ell?
Yes. The ends are NPT taper threads per ASME B1.20.1 and ship bare, so pipe dope or PTFE tape rated for the service (use a gas-rated sealant on fuel gas) goes on the male threads at assembly. No gasket or sealing washer is supplied with the fitting.
