🔍 Key Concepts

• Pipe fitting terminology – what do 'male' and 'female' threads mean in plumbing/pipe work? • Difference between a regular elbow and a street elbow – how each connects to other pipes or fittings. • Typical use of street elbows – where would you use one instead of using two fittings together?

💭 Think About

• Picture a situation where you need to change direction and connect directly into a fitting (like a tee or valve) without using an extra short piece of pipe. What kind of threads would make that possible? • Compare a standard 90° elbow to a street elbow: how do both ends of a standard elbow connect, and what must be different on a street elbow to reduce the number of pieces needed? • If an elbow is meant to screw directly into another fitting on one side, what kind of threads must that side have, and what about the other side?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear on the definitions of male (external) and female (internal) threads. • Think about whether both ends can really be the same type of thread and still serve the special purpose of a street elbow. • Eliminate any option that would not allow the elbow to screw directly into a threaded fitting without an extra piece of pipe.
