USA Manufactured FNPT Black Cast Iron 22-1/2° Pipe Elbow
USA Manufactured FNPT Black Cast Iron 22-1/2° Pipe Elbow
USA Manufactured FNPT Black Cast Iron 22-1/2° Pipe Elbows provide a durable, precise solution for making gradual directional changes in commercial and industrial threaded piping systems. Manufactured in the United States from quality cast iron, these specialty elbows feature female National Pipe Taper threads on both ends for connecting compatible male NPT pipe nipples, threaded pipe, adapters, and equipment connections.
The 22-1/2-degree angle creates a gentler change in direction than standard 45-degree or 90-degree elbows. This gradual offset can help installers route piping around structural obstructions, align equipment connections, and reduce abrupt changes in the piping layout. Precision-machined FNPT threads promote proper engagement, accurate alignment, and dependable sealing when used with the correct pipe-thread sealant.
Durable Cast Iron Construction
Black cast iron offers excellent rigidity, dimensional stability, and resistance to mechanical wear. USA manufactured 22-1/2° pipe elbows provide consistent sizing and dependable thread quality, helping contractors and maintenance teams create professional piping assemblies.
The black cast iron finish is commonly used in indoor industrial, mechanical, and commercial installations where galvanized corrosion protection is not required. Multiple nominal pipe sizes may be available to support equipment hookups, piping repairs, new construction, and custom system configurations.
