Alemite AL44701 Elbow Fitting 1/8 Ptf Male X 1/8 Nptf

Product Description

The ALEMITE AL44701 is a 90-degree elbow fitting designed to connect 1/8 PTF male threads to 1/8 NPTF female threads in lubrication and hydraulic service lines. This small-body elbow is used where a straight fitting will not clear surrounding components and a direction change is needed in the fluid path. At 0.03 pounds, it is a compact, lightweight connector suited to grease and oil delivery systems. Licensed plumbers, millwrights, and lube-system technicians install these fittings during equipment assembly and maintenance.

This fitting is appropriate for use in industrial lubrication systems, grease gun assemblies, bearing lubrication points, and hydraulic accessory lines where a 90-degree direction change is needed between PTF and NPTF threaded ports. The PTF-to-NPTF thread combination is common in lubrication fittings, allowing connection between dry-seal and tapered pipe thread standards found on pumps, manifolds, and equipment housings.

Key Features

• 1/8 PTF male inlet to 1/8 NPTF outlet thread configuration
• 90-degree elbow body allows direction change in confined spaces
• Lightweight at 0.03 pounds for low-load applications
• Compact form factor suited to grease and oil delivery assemblies
• Sold individually — verify quantity requirements before ordering

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style lubrication fitting for systems using 1/8 PTF male and 1/8 NPTF threaded connections, typical in industrial grease and oil service lines.

Installation Notes

Depressurize and relieve all fluid pressure in the lubrication or hydraulic line before removing or installing any fitting. Thread engagement should be confirmed hand-tight before using a wrench to avoid cross-threading the PTF-to-NPTF interface. Apply appropriate thread sealant compatible with the system fluid where required by the equipment manufacturer. Installation is typically performed by a millwright, lube technician, or licensed plumber familiar with tapered thread fitting standards.
