Description
When you're plumbing hydraulic lines or fuel systems on your tractor, sometimes you need to make a tight turn in a cramped space. That's where this 45-degree black iron street elbow comes in handy. It gives you the angle you need without taking up the room that two separate fittings would require, and the male-to-female threading means it screws right into existing connections.
What You're Getting
- 45-degree angle that's perfect for routing lines around obstacles without sharp bends
- Street design combines male and female threads in one compact fitting
- Black iron construction handles high pressure and resists corrosion better than plain steel
- 3/4-inch NPT threads on both ends fit standard hydraulic and fuel system components
- Saves space compared to using a coupling and separate elbow
Built for Real Farm Work
This fitting is right at home in hydraulic systems on loaders, three-point hitches, and remote outlets. You'll also find it useful for fuel lines, oil lines, and air systems where you need to route piping around frame members or other equipment. The 45-degree angle is gentler on fluid flow than a 90-degree turn, which means less pressure drop and smoother operation.
Made to Last
Black iron fittings are the go-to choice for farm hydraulics because they can handle the pressure and punishment that comes with the territory. The black oxide coating helps resist rust and corrosion, especially important in systems that might sit unused for weeks at a time or get exposed to moisture.
Installation Notes
Use pipe dope or Teflon tape on the male threads to ensure a leak-free connection. The street design means one end threads directly into a port or coupling while the other end accepts the next piece of pipe or fitting. Hand-tighten first, then use a wrench to snug it down—but don't overtighten and risk cracking the fitting or the component you're threading into.
