Anderson Metals lead-free brass flare male elbow provides a 90-degree turn between 1/2" SAE 45-degree flare tubing and 3/8" male pipe thread (NPT). Forged from lead-free brass for potable water, gas appliance, and refrigeration service where lead-free compliance is required.

• Connects 1/2" flare tubing to 3/8" male pipe thread (NPT)
• 90-degree elbow body redirects tubing around tight corners and behind cabinets
• Forged lead-free brass - meets NSF/ANSI 61 and Public Law 111-380 for potable water service
• Rated to 1000 PSI maximum working pressure at 73 degrees F
• Accepts copper, aluminum, and soft brass tubing properly flared to SAE 45-degree
• Use on water, oil, air, natural gas, and LP gas service lines

Sized for higher-flow gas connections - gas ranges, commercial kitchen equipment, tankless water heaters, and larger appliance flex. The larger flare end keeps pressure drop low on appliances that pull serious BTU under full load.

Tip: Apply PTFE thread sealant tape or pipe dope to the MPT threads only - the flare seal is metal-to-metal and must stay clean. Use a single-pass flaring tool to form a clean SAE 45-degree flare on the tubing end; double-flare or short flares will leak. Hand-thread the flare nut onto the fitting, then snug with a backup wrench on the elbow body to avoid twisting the tubing.
