what is a "cast street plumber's fitting" and where can I find one? Does MMI carry this? if so, then I missed it in the catalog

i have seen this referenced in other threads, also by Hanley I believe, but i dont know what it is, other than preferable to a squared off fitting where debris can collect at the back of the manifold. i have already been burned by this and would like to take all preventive measures to avoid such a recurrence.
