Product Details
The Merit chrome plated brass pipe fitting is a 3/4 inch 45 degree street elbow with NPT male x female connections. It is designed for use in low pressure applications involving water, oil, and gas (W.O.G.), with pressure ratings of 125 PSI for steam and 200 PSI for W.O.G. This fitting complies with ANSI B 1.20.1 and ANSI B 16.15 standards. It offers superior corrosion resistance, and the relative softness of the material facilitates easy installation and a tight seal. Chrome plated brass fittings are favored for their ease of cleaning, resistance to attracting dirt and bacteria, and ability to maintain a shiny finish. However, it is important to note that these fittings contain lead and are not permitted by federal law for installation in potable water systems in the U.S.A. and its territories.
