Constructed from brass, this fitting is suited for plumbing, refrigeration, and gas distribution lines where a reliable 90-degree directional change is needed. The captive sleeve design keeps the compression sleeve retained on the fitting body during handling, simplifying assembly in tight or overhead installations. Rated for a temperature range of -65 to 250 degrees F, it performs across a broad range of operating conditions encountered in residential and light commercial service work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is used in residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC refrigerant lines, and compressed gas applications where a compression-to-male-NPTF transition at a 90-degree angle is required. It is typically installed by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pipefitters working on copper tubing runs that need to connect to a threaded port or valve body. The captive sleeve format is common in OEM equipment connections and field retrofit situations where tube routing requires a right-angle turn at the fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaptive sleeve design retains compression sleeve on fitting body for easier single-hand assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e90-degree elbow geometry allows directional routing in confined spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch compression inlet to 1\/2-inch male NPTF outlet transition in a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrass construction provides corrosion resistance and compatibility with copper tubing systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated from -65 to 250 degrees F for use across refrigeration, plumbing, and gas service temperature ranges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for systems using 3\/8-inch compression tubing connections transitioning to 1\/2-inch male NPTF threaded ports.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified HVAC technician in accordance with applicable IPC or IFGC codes. Shut off the supply line and depressurize the system before disassembly or fitting installation. Hand-tighten the compression nut onto the fitting body, then wrench-tighten per standard compression fitting practice  -  do not overtighten, as brass threads and ferrules can be damaged. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male NPTF threads before connecting to the receiving port.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches (Compression)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inches (Male NPTF)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: -65 to 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.9 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.55 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.45 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.12 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: MIDLAND INDUSTRIES\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 00269-0608\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67950307639602,"sku":"00269-0608","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/dbbdee5dd6e46b35707c73ac36c6a125_c74d2ded-3b00-42e5-9939-97857727d0cd.jpg?v=1791712676","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-00269-0608-brass-compression-elbow","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
