Boshart 55-12 3/4" Flare x Flare Elbow Fitting

The Boshart 3/4" Flare x Flare Elbow is a rough-in fitting built for plumbing and heating installations carrying gas, oil, air, or water. This elbow fitting mates flare-to-flare connections and is applicable with aluminum, brass, copper, and steel tubing, making it a versatile choice for contractors working across multiple tubing materials on the same job. The flare connection allows the fitting to be disassembled and reassembled repeatedly without any effect on the seal, so plumbers and HVAC techs can service a line, swap a section of tubing, or test a joint without replacing the fitting. Sold in a 5-piece pack, this elbow is manufactured in the United States and is sized for 3/4" flare connections, giving installers a reliable change-of-direction fitting for behind-the-wall or mechanical room tubing runs.

Key Features

Boshart BF-55-12 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does a flare elbow work with copper, aluminum, or steel tubing, or only one material?
All four. The 55-12 flare x flare elbow is applicable with aluminum, brass, copper, and steel tubing, which is why it gets used on mixed jobs where a gas run is steel and a water or oil run is copper. The tubing does have to be flared properly with a flaring tool; flare fittings will not seal on a plain cut tube end.
2) Can a flare elbow be taken apart and put back together, or do I have to replace it?
It can be broken down and remade. The flare design on the Boshart 55-12 allows repeated disassembly and reassembly with no effect on the seal, so you can pull a section of tubing, pressure test a joint, or rework a run and reuse the same elbow. That is the practical reason flare gets specified over a soldered or compression joint on lines that get serviced.
3) Should I use a flare elbow or a compression elbow on a serviceable tubing run?
Flare is the choice when the joint will be opened again. The Boshart 55-12 flare x flare elbow remakes its seal each time it is reassembled, while a compression joint relies on a ferrule that deforms onto the tube and is generally not meant to be reused. Flare also needs a flaring tool and a flared tube end, so compression stays easier for tight retrofits where you cannot swing a flaring block.
4) How many elbows come in a pack of the Boshart 55-12?
Five pieces per pack. That is one purchase covering several direction changes in a mechanical room or behind-the-wall run, which is how most contractors buy them rather than one at a time.
5) What is the Boshart part number for the 3/4 inch flare x flare elbow?
Boshart BF-55-12. Order by that number when matching an existing 3/4 inch flare elbow on a job, since the 55 series covers other configurations and sizes as well.
