A forged street elbow is a type of pipe fitting that is used to join two pipes at a 90-degree angle. It has a male NPT thread on one end and a female NPT thread on the other. The male thread is screwed into the end of one pipe, and the female thread is screwed into the end of the other pipe. This creates a tight, leak-free connection. Forged street elbows are typically made from carbon steel, stainless steel, or ductile iron. Carbon steel is the most common material, as it is relatively inexpensive and easy to work with. Stainless steel is more expensive, but it is also more corrosion-resistant. Ductile iron is the strongest material, but it is also the most expensive. The technical specifications of a forged street elbow will vary depending on the material, size, and class. The following are some common specifications: Material: Carbon steel, stainless steel, or ductile iron Size: 1/2" to 12" Class: 3000, 6000, or 9000 Thread: NPT, BSP, BSPT
