Available Pressure Classes:
✔ 2000#
✔ 3000#
✔ 6000#

Size Range: 1/8” to 4”

🔷 What is a Forged Threaded Elbow?

A Forged Threaded Elbow is a screwed pipe fitting designed to redirect fluid flow at a specific angle. It features female threaded ends that allow easy installation without the need for welding.

These elbows are ideal for systems requiring:

✔ Quick installation
✔ Easy maintenance
✔ System modification flexibility
✔ No hot work (welding)

🔷 Types of Forged Threaded Elbows

1️⃣ 90° Threaded Elbow

A 90-degree threaded elbow changes the direction of flow by 90 degrees.

🔹 Features:

• Sharp directional change

• Compact design

• Suitable for confined spaces

• Strong forged construction

🔹 Applications:

• Hydraulic lines

• Gas distribution systems

• Instrumentation pipelines

• Water and utility lines

2️⃣ 45° Threaded Elbow

A 45-degree threaded elbow changes the direction of flow by 45 degrees, allowing smoother redirection and reduced turbulence.

🔹 Features:

• Gradual flow transition

• Lower pressure drop

• Reduced turbulence

• Improved flow efficiency

🔹 Applications:

• Process piping

• Chemical pipelines

• Oil & gas distribution

• Steam and condensate systems
