Galvanized 1/8" 90 Street Elbow

Galvanized 1/8" 90 Street Elbow?. This Elbow is a fitting that allows you to connect multiple fittings together, and make gradual bends and changes of direction in the pipe system. This Galvanized 1/8" 90 Street Elbow features a tapered and threaded male and female connection ideal for a snug and leak free connection when installed correctly. (Teflon tape or Pipe dope is required for a leek free connection) This Galvanized Nipple and other fittings are used in a variety of different plumbing applications. They can be used in hot water applications, but cold water applications are best with the galvanized fitting and piping construction. Its galvanized construction is very durable and its ability to resist corrosion and rust make it a better choice over black iron or copper fittings. (Note: When using Street Elbows to connect to copper or brass, a Dielectric Union is required to prevent "Galvanic Corrosion" which is a corrosive reaction created through acidic electrolysis that leads to week and faulty connections)
