USA Manufactured FNPT Black Cast Iron Short Turn 45° Drainage Pipe Elbow

USA Manufactured FNPT Black Cast Iron Short Turn 45° Drainage Pipe Elbow

USA Manufactured FNPT Black Cast Iron Short Turn 45° Drainage Pipe Elbows provide a compact, durable solution for changing direction in commercial and industrial drain, waste, and vent piping systems. Manufactured in the United States from quality black cast iron, these threaded drainage fittings feature female National Pipe Taper connections on both ends for joining compatible male NPT pipe, drainage nipples, adapters, and equipment outlets.

The short-turn 45-degree configuration helps installers create an angled directional change while conserving valuable installation space. Its compact radius makes this fitting especially useful when routing drainage piping around walls, floor penetrations, structural supports, mechanical equipment, and other obstructions. Precision-machined FNPT threads promote accurate alignment, secure engagement, and dependable assembly when installed with the correct pipe-thread sealant.

Compact Cast Iron Fitting for DWV Systems

Black cast iron delivers excellent rigidity, dimensional stability, mechanical durability, and sound-dampening performance. USA manufactured short-turn 45° drainage elbows provide consistent dimensions and dependable thread quality for professional plumbing, mechanical, and facility-maintenance installations.

Compared with a 90-degree elbow, the 45-degree angle creates a less abrupt flow transition. However, the short-turn radius remains more compact than a long-sweep fitting. Product selection should be based on applicable plumbing codes, available installation clearance, gravity-flow requirements, and maintenance accessibility.
