When you need to route piping around corners in tight spaces, a leaky or mismatched fitting can shut down an entire system. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, irrigation installers, and industrial maintenance crews all face the same challenge: finding a BSP 90° elbow fitting that matches both thread type and pipe size without ordering multiple adapters. These stainless steel elbow fittings solve that problem with a wide selection of same-size and reducing configurations in a single product listing.
Each fitting is a single-piece stainless steel 90-degree elbow with BSP (British Standard Pipe) threads. Available in female-to-female, female-to-male, and male-to-male configurations, with thread sizes ranging from 1/8" BSP up to 1" BSP. Reducing variants (e.g., 3/8" to 1/4", 1/2" to 1/4") allow you to change pipe diameter at the bend point. Order 1, 2, or 3 pieces per transaction using the Quantity option.
Typical applications include BSP elbow fittings for water supply lines, compressed air distribution systems, hydraulic circuits, garden irrigation manifolds, and industrial fluid transfer where a 90° direction change is needed. The reducing variants are especially useful in stainless steel pipe reducing elbow installations where space constraints prevent using a straight reducer plus a separate elbow.

Match the BSP thread size to your existing pipe or fitting. BSP sizes refer to the nominal bore, not the actual thread diameter. For example, a 1/4" BSP fitting typically has an actual thread OD of about 13.16mm (≈0.518"). Always measure your existing threads or check your system's spec sheet before ordering. If you have a 1/2" pipe, select the 1/2" BSP variant.
Stainless steel BSP elbow fittings generally handle working pressures up to 1000–3000 PSI depending on size and wall thickness. Smaller sizes typically support higher pressure ratings. Contact us to confirm the exact rating for your specific variant before use in high-pressure systems.
Yes. Stainless steel (typically 304 or 316 grade) offers strong resistance to rust, oxidation, and mild chemical exposure. For marine or highly corrosive environments, 316 stainless is generally recommended. These fittings are suitable for outdoor plumbing, irrigation, and industrial use in most climates.
BSP Female (BSPF) has internal threads and connects to a male-threaded pipe or fitting. BSP Male (BSPM) has external threads and screws into a female port. This product offers female-to-female, female-to-male, and male-to-male configurations to suit different connection needs at the 90° bend point.
BSP and NPT threads are not directly interchangeable. BSP uses a 55° thread angle while NPT uses 60°. In most cases, mixing BSP and NPT without an adapter will result in leaks or cross-threading. Use a dedicated BSP-to-NPT adapter if your system uses NPT ports.
For BSPP (parallel) threads, a sealing washer or O-ring at the face is generally required. For BSPT (tapered) threads, PTFE tape or thread sealant compound applied to the male threads before assembly is the standard practice. Always use the sealing method appropriate for your thread type to ensure a leak-free joint.
Choose a same-size elbow (e.g., 1/4" Female to 1/4" Female) when you need a 90° direction change without altering pipe diameter. Choose a reducing elbow (e.g., 3/8" Female to 1/4" Female) when you need to step down the pipe size at the same bend point — this saves space and eliminates the need for a separate reducer fitting in your line.
