Value Brand 1 in Black Forged Steel 90° Elbow Class 3000
A 1-inch socket-weld 90-degree elbow in black forged steel rated Class 3000 for 3000 psi at 72°F
- 90° flow change in tight pipe runs
- Class 3000 rating handles 3000 psi at 72 °F
- Black forged steel body resists corrosion and wear
- Socket-weld connection creates a permanent leak-free joint
- Meets ANSI B1.20.1, ASME B16.11 and ASTM A105 standards
Purpose and fit
This 90-degree elbow redirects flow in socket-weld piping systems rated for Class 3000 service. It suits installers and maintenance teams working with black forged steel networks that follow ANSI B1.20.1, ASME B16.11 and SA105 specifications.
Thermals noise and power
The fitting contains no moving parts, so it generates no noise and draws no power during operation. Its ASTM A105 forged steel construction handles a maximum pressure of 3000 psi at 72 degrees F without deformation.
Build and connections
Socket-weld ends create a permanent, leak-resistant joint when welded to matching 1-inch pipe. The Class 3000 forged steel body resists mechanical stress and corrosion in standard industrial environments. Installers who need threaded or flanged connections must choose a different fitting type.

Questions about this item
How do I install the socket-weld elbow and what step do people get wrong?
Align the pipe inside the socket, maintain a 1/16 inch gap before welding, then make a fillet weld per ASME B16.11; the common error is skipping the gap, which causes stress cracks.
What maintenance or replacement will the Class 3000 forged steel elbow need later?
Inspect the weld and threads periodically for corrosion or fatigue; replace the fitting if wall thickness drops below the ASME B16.11 minimum or if leaks appear at the socket joint.
What limit shows up first under sustained use at the rated 3000 psi?
The 3000 psi rating applies at 72 °F; as temperature rises the allowable working pressure drops per ASTM A105, so thermal derating is the first limit encountered.
