Description
The ANDERSON METALS CORP 756116-06 is a 3/8-inch brass street elbow designed for use in potable water and general plumbing systems. A street elbow features one male and one female end, allowing direct connection to a fitting without a short nipple, which simplifies tight-space installations. This fitting is lead free compliant and meets Public Law 111-380, making it suitable for use in drinking water applications where lead-free materials are required by code. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting during new construction, retrofit, and repair work across residential and light commercial plumbing systems.
This street elbow is used wherever a 90-degree directional change is needed in a 3/8-inch pipe run. Its compact male-by-female configuration makes it a go-to choice in confined spaces such as under-sink supply connections, appliance hookups, and branch line transitions. The brass construction provides corrosion resistance and durability suited to both hot and cold water service lines. It is sold in bulk packaging with a quantity of 10 units per package, making it practical for service vans and job-site stock.
