Brasscraft 65-14x Tube Union Elbow 90 Deg 7/8 in Compression

Product Description

The BRASSCRAFT 65-14x is a 90-degree tube union elbow designed for compression-style tubing connections in gas and plumbing distribution systems. Constructed from brass with a yellow color coding for quick field identification, this fitting creates a leak-resistant directional change in a tubing run without the need for solder or threading. The compression end style allows for tool-assisted installation that holds reliably under service conditions. Licensed plumbers and gas fitters commonly install this type of fitting during appliance hookups, meter-to-appliance runs, and residential distribution line repairs.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing and gas applications where a 90-degree directional change is required in a 7/8-inch tubing line. The compression connection style makes it compatible with soft copper and corrugated stainless tubing assemblies where compression-type fittings are specified. The yellow color designation is standard in the industry to indicate gas service use, making it easy to distinguish from potable water fittings during rough-in and inspection.

Key Features

• 90-degree angle provides a clean directional change in tight installation spaces
• Compression end style eliminates soldering and simplifies field installation
• Brass construction offers corrosion resistance and long service life
• Yellow color coding indicates gas service designation at a glance
• 7/8-inch nominal size fits standard tubing used in residential gas distribution

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 7/8-inch compression tubing connections in residential gas and plumbing piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter in accordance with local code requirements and the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) where applicable. Shut off the gas or water supply and verify pressure has been relieved before disassembling any existing fittings. Compression fittings require proper tube preparation including square-cut, deburred tubing ends and correctly seated ferrules to achieve a leak-free joint. After installation, always perform a leak test using an approved detection solution before returning the system to service.
