ASC Engineered Solutions 310505805 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the ASC Engineered Solutions 2 x 1-1/2 black malleable iron 90 elbow a reducing elbow?
Yes. It is a reducing 90 degree elbow, 2 inch on one end and 1-1/2 inch on the other, so it turns the run and steps the pipe size down in one fitting. Both ends are female pipe thread (FPT), so it threads onto male-threaded pipe ends on both sides. No separate bushing needed for the size change.
2) Is this ASC malleable iron 90 elbow UL and FM approved for fire sprinkler work?
Yes, the fitting carries UL/FM approval, which is what an inspector looks for on threaded fire protection piping. Combined with the extra heavy (XH) class and ASME B16.3 pressure rating, it is suited to sprinkler mains and branch lines run in threaded black steel.
3) Can I use a black malleable iron 90 elbow on a potable water line?
No. Black malleable iron is uncoated and will rust in wet potable service. This 2 x 1-1/2 extra heavy elbow is a black finish fitting intended for gas, fire protection, and similar dry or closed steel piping. For potable water use a galvanized malleable iron fitting or a copper, brass, or CPVC fitting instead.
4) What material and spec does this 2 x 1-1/2 reducing elbow meet?
The casting is malleable iron to ASTM A-197, with dimensions to ASME B16.3 and NPT threads to ASME B1.20.1. That combination is what most mechanical specs call out for threaded black iron fittings, so it drops straight into a drawing written to B16.3. The fitting weighs 3.3 lbs.
5) Do I need a separate reducer bushing with this fitting?
No. The size reduction is built into the elbow itself, 2 inch female thread on one end and 1-1/2 inch female thread on the other. Using one reducing elbow instead of an elbow plus a bushing cuts a joint out of the run and keeps the takeout shorter, which matters in tight ceiling space.
6) What is the part number for the ASC 2 x 1-1/2 extra heavy black 90 elbow?
Order it as ASC Engineered Solutions model 310505805. That number covers the 2 inch by 1-1/2 inch reducing 90, extra heavy, black malleable iron, FPT x FPT.
