Fairview s6769-4a Compression 90 Elbow 1/4 Od X 1/8 Mpt

Product Description

The FAIRVIEW s6769-4a is a steel compression 90-degree elbow fitting designed to connect tubing to a male pipe thread port at a right angle. The fitting accepts 1/4 inch OD tubing on the compression side and terminates in a 1/8 inch male pipe thread (MPT) on the threaded side. Steel construction provides the durability needed for pressurized fluid and gas lines in HVAC, refrigeration, and plumbing applications. This type of fitting is a standard component in any trade professional's service inventory for tight-space routing where a straight compression connection is not practical.

The s6769-4a is suited for residential and light commercial installations where small-diameter tubing must transition to a threaded port at a 90-degree angle. Common install scenarios include instrument lines, pilot gas lines, control tubing, and other low-volume fluid or gas circuits that require a compact direction change at a threaded fitting body. It is installed by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and gas service technicians working on tubing runs in confined equipment enclosures.

Key Features

• 90-degree elbow configuration allows direction changes in tight spaces without bending tubing
• Compression fitting end accepts 1/4 inch OD tubing without soldering or flaring
• 1/8 inch MPT threaded end mates directly to female pipe thread ports
• Steel construction for strength and durability under pressure
• Compact form factor suited for enclosed equipment and panel installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for systems using 1/4 inch OD tubing with 1/8 inch female pipe thread ports in HVAC, plumbing, and gas piping assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, HVAC technician, or gas technician in accordance with applicable codes such as the IPC or IFGC. Shut off and depressurize the line before removing or installing any compression fitting. Hand-tighten the compression nut first, then snug with a wrench — avoid overtightening, which can deform the ferrule and cause leaks. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the MPT threads as required by local code and the service medium.
