Here are some key advantages of using black malleable iron pipe fittings 90 degree elbow:
Strength
Malleable iron is a strong yet flexible material that can withstand pressure/vibration.
Strength
Malleable iron is a strong yet flexible material that can withstand pressure/vibration.
Durability
Properly installed elbows can last 50+ years, outperforming plastic or copper fittings over the long-run.
Chemical resistance
Elbows maintain integrity when handling various liquids including water, chemicals, and corrosive gases.
Temperature resistance
Suitable for pipes carrying fluids from cryogenic to over 500°F.
Threading
Standard NPT/BSP tapered threading allows secure connections to other metal pipes/fixtures.
Pressure rating
Most elbows are rated for pressures over 250 PSI and higher for demanding applications.
Vibration resistance
Malleable iron is less prone to developing leaks from shaking or movement in the piping.
Cost-effective
Provide value through a long service lifetime compared to initial material cost.
Easy installation
Elbows can spin 360° during assembly and are widely available wherever pipe is used.
Their proven performance, reliability and versatility make malleable iron 90s suitable for plumbing and industrial piping applications.
