ASC Engineered Solutions 310024807 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread does the 3 inch black malleable iron 45 degree elbow take on each end?
Both ends are female pipe thread (FPT), 3 inch, cut to ASME B1.20.1 NPT. So it threads onto 3 inch male-threaded black steel pipe nipples or threaded pipe ends on both sides. No welding, no grooving, no adapters needed if your pipe is already threaded NPT.
2) Is this 45 degree malleable iron elbow approved for use in a fire sprinkler system?
It carries UL/FM approval, which is the listing sprinkler contractors and AHJs look for on threaded fire protection fittings. It is standard (STD) class malleable iron built to ASME B16.3 for both dimensions and pressure rating, with NPT threads to ASME B1.20.1.
3) Can I use a black malleable iron elbow on a potable water line?
No. Black malleable iron fittings are for gas, fire protection, air, and non-potable service. The black finish is a mill/oil coating with no corrosion protection against potable water, so use galvanized or copper/CPVC for domestic water. This one is a black finish malleable iron fitting.
4) What grade of malleable iron is this elbow made from?
The casting conforms to ASTM A-197, the standard for cupola malleable iron used in threaded pipe fittings. That is the material callout most mechanical and fire protection specs reference for black malleable fittings, so it will satisfy a submittal asking for ASTM A197 malleable iron to ASME B16.3.
5) Is this elbow 3 inch on both ends or is it a reducing fitting?
Straight 3 by 3. Size 1 and Size 2 are both 3 inch, so it is a full size 45 degree ell, not a reducing elbow. If you need to change diameter at the turn, you need a reducing ell or a separate bushing or reducer.
