ASC Engineered Solutions 310511605 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size and thread type are the ends on the ASC Engineered Solutions 2 inch black malleable iron 45 degree elbow?
Both ends are 2 inch FPT, so it threads onto 2 inch male NPT pipe ends on each side. Threads are cut to ASME B1.20.1, the standard NPT taper thread spec, so it mates with ordinary threaded black steel pipe and nipples without an adapter.
2) What does the XH rating mean on a 2 inch malleable iron 45 elbow, and when do I need it instead of a standard fitting?
XH is extra heavy, a heavier wall class than standard weight malleable iron, with pressure ratings set by ASME B16.3. Use it where the line pressure or the service class on the drawing exceeds what a standard class fitting is rated for, or where a spec calls out extra heavy throughout. On low pressure domestic gas or general service, standard weight is usually what gets specified. XH fittings also cost more and weigh more, so don't default to them unless the spec says so.
3) Is this 2 inch black 45 degree elbow UL listed and FM approved for fire sprinkler work?
Yes, the fitting carries UL/FM recognition, which is what lets it be used on fire protection piping where the AHJ requires listed components. It is black malleable iron, which is the usual finish for dry sprinkler and general black steel systems rather than potable water.
4) Can I use a black malleable iron 45 degree elbow on a potable water line?
No. Black malleable iron fittings are for gas, fire protection, compressed air, and general non-potable service. Black iron corrodes in wet potable service, and galvanized malleable iron or a copper/CPVC/PEX system is what gets used for domestic water instead. The finish here is black.
5) What standard is this 2 inch malleable iron 45 ell manufactured to, for submittal purposes?
Dimensions and pressure ratings follow ASME B16.3, the material is ASTM A-197 malleable iron, and threads are ASME B1.20.1. Those three citations are what a submittal or spec reviewer on a commercial job will be looking for on a threaded malleable iron fitting.
6) What is the part number for the ASC Engineered Solutions 2 inch extra heavy black 45 elbow?
Order it as MPN 310511605. That number covers the 2 inch x 2 inch FPT, extra heavy, black malleable iron 45 degree elbow.
7) How much does the 2 inch XH black 45 degree elbow weigh?
3.4 lbs each. Worth knowing on overhead sprinkler or gas mains, where fitting weight adds up fast on hanger spacing and on freight for a full pallet of them.
