Structural Pipe Fitting For 2 Inch Pipe
This Zoro Select side outlet elbow is a cast iron connection fitting designed for structural pipe systems. It suits installers who need a corrosion-resistant joint for two-inch nominal pipe. The gray zinc-plated finish helps protect against rust in outdoor or damp environments. Buyers who require a different pipe size or a non-threaded connection method should look elsewhere.
Interface Constraints And Compatibility
The fitting accepts pipe with an actual outer diameter of 2 3/8 inches and presents an inside diameter of 2 1/2 inches. Its overall length measures 4 7/8 inches, which determines the space needed in the assembled framework. The side outlet configuration creates a fixed ninety-degree branch that cannot be reoriented after assembly. Systems using metric pipe or differing wall thicknesses will not match this fitting.
Installation Notes And Common Issues
The cast iron construction makes the fitting heavy and brittle, so it must be supported during threading to avoid cracking. Thread sealant or tape is required on all three ports to prevent leaks at the joints. Over-tightening with pipe wrenches often damages the zinc plating and can split the hub. The product carries California Proposition 65 warnings for chemicals linked to cancer and reproductive harm.
