FNPTxFNPT Black Cast Iron 90° Reducing Pipe Elbow
FNPT x FNPT Black Cast Iron 90° Reducing Pipe Elbow for Threaded Piping Systems
An FNPT x FNPT Black Cast Iron 90° Reducing Pipe Elbow is a versatile threaded fitting designed to change the direction of pipe flow by 90 degrees while transitioning from a larger pipe size to a smaller one. Featuring Female National Pipe Thread (FNPT) connections on both ends, this reducing elbow provides a secure, leak-resistant connection without the need for welding. Manufactured from high-quality black cast iron, these fittings deliver exceptional durability, strength, and reliable performance in commercial, industrial, and mechanical piping systems.
By combining directional flow control with pipe size reduction in a single fitting, a 90° reducing elbow simplifies installation, reduces the number of required fittings, and improves overall system efficiency.
Heavy-Duty Construction for Long-Term Reliability
Black cast iron reducing elbows are engineered to withstand demanding operating conditions while maintaining dependable performance. Precision-machined FNPT threads ensure proper alignment and a tight seal when installed with PTFE thread seal tape or an approved pipe thread sealant.
Available in a variety of reducing size combinations, these fittings integrate seamlessly with standard threaded piping systems for both new construction and maintenance applications.
