Legris 3609 12 13 Male Elbow Tube Fitting 12mm 1/4 Bspt

Product Description

The LEGRIS 3609 12 13 is a push-to-connect male elbow tube fitting designed for fast, tool-free connections in fluid and gas distribution systems. Constructed from nickel-plated brass, it handles a maximum working pressure of 435 psi and a temperature range of -4 degrees F to 302 degrees F. The fitting accepts 12mm outside diameter tubing on the tube ends and terminates in a 1/4-inch BSPT male thread. It is suited for licensed pipefitters, pneumatic system technicians, and plumbing professionals who need a reliable, leak-resistant elbow connection in tight routing situations. The O-ring is FKM, providing chemical compatibility with both liquid and gas media.

This fitting is used in pneumatic and hydraulic plumbing lines where a 90-degree directional change is needed between a tube run and a male-threaded port. Typical applications include compressed air distribution, process gas lines, and fluid control panels in industrial and commercial settings. The push-to-connect design allows the tube to seat and seal without ferrules, compression sleeves, or additional tooling, speeding up installation in high-density manifold and panel environments.

Key Features

• Push-to-connect design accepts 12mm OD tubing with no ferrules or extra tooling required
• Nickel-plated brass body resists corrosion in liquid and gas service
• FKM O-ring provides broad chemical compatibility for both liquid and gas media
• Rated to 435 psi maximum working pressure
• Wide temperature range: -4 degrees F to 302 degrees F
• Compliant with RoHS, ATEX, PED, REACH, FDA 21 CFR, and ISO 14743 standards

Compatibility

Designed for use with liquid and gas systems requiring a 12mm OD push-to-connect tube fitting with a 1/4-inch BSPT male thread. Compatible with pneumatic and fluid distribution lines where ISO 14743 push-in fittings are specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by pipefitters or pneumatic system technicians. De-pressurize and isolate the line completely before removing or installing any fitting. Ensure the tube end is cut square and deburred before inserting into the push-to-connect collet to achieve a proper seal. Verify BSPT thread engagement and apply appropriate thread sealant per site or code requirements before pressurizing the system.
