Midland Industries 30483 90-deg Swivel Elbow 3/8in

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 30483 is a 90-degree swivel elbow fitting designed to connect 3/8-inch push-on hose barb lines to 3/8-inch female SAE flared swivel ports. Constructed from zinc-plated steel, it offers corrosion resistance in demanding service environments. The fitting uses a 5/8-18 thread on the swivel end and is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 150 psi. At 1.98 inches in overall length with a swivel end length of 0.85 inches, it is a compact solution for routing hose assemblies through tight angles. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and fluid-system installers use this fitting where a 90-degree change in direction is required without sacrificing swivel articulation.

This fitting is suited for use in refrigeration lines, hydraulic hose assemblies, fuel systems, and general fluid-transfer applications that require an SAE flared swivel connection paired with a push-on hose barb. The swivel design allows the hose to be oriented after installation, reducing stress on the hose and simplifying routing in confined spaces. It is appropriate for both residential and light commercial installations where working pressures do not exceed 150 psi.

Key Features

• 90-degree elbow configuration allows direction change without additional adapters
• 3/8-inch push-on hose barb on one end for secure, clamp-free hose retention
• 3/8-inch female SAE flared swivel on the other end for leak-resistant metal-to-metal sealing
• Zinc-plated steel construction resists corrosion in wet and outdoor-adjacent environments
• Rated to 150 psi maximum operating pressure
• Swivel end articulates after installation to reduce hose strain and simplify routing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for fluid-transfer systems using 3/8-inch push-on hose barb and 3/8-inch female SAE flared swivel connections with 5/8-18 thread.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with fluid-system fittings and applicable codes. Depressurize and drain the system completely before removing or installing any fitting. Verify that the mating SAE flare seat is clean and undamaged before torquing the swivel nut to avoid leaks. Do not exceed the rated 150 psi operating pressure in service.
