Both ends feature 1\/4-inch Male NPTF (National Pipe Taper Fuel) connections with 1\/4-18 thread, providing a pressure-tight, dryseal connection without the need for additional sealant in many applications. Constructed from steel, this fitting is suited for demanding service environments. Plumbers, pipefitters, and hydraulic system technicians commonly install this fitting when routing lines around obstructions or making directional changes at equipment connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 55004 is appropriate for use in hydraulic systems, compressed air lines, fuel plumbing, and general steel pipe assemblies where a 90-degree turn is required at a 1\/4-inch Male NPTF port. The dryseal NPTF thread form is designed to create a pressure-tight seal through thread interference alone, making it a reliable choice for fluid and gas service. It fits standard 1\/4-18 NPTF ported equipment and components commonly found in industrial and trade applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e90-degree elbow configuration for right-angle directional changes in pipe runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoth ends: 1\/4-inch Male NPTF with 1\/4-18 thread for dryseal pressure-tight connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel construction for durability in hydraulic and pressurized fluid service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact footprint: 1.3 inches in length, 1.35 inches in width, 0.5 inches in height\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow minimum order quantity suitable for single-unit replacement or repair work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for hydraulic systems, pneumatic lines, and steel pipe assemblies using 1\/4-inch Male NPTF connections with 1\/4-18 thread.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or qualified hydraulic technician. Depressurize and fully isolate the system before removing or installing any fittings. NPTF dryseal threads are engineered to seal through thread engagement, but applying a compatible thread sealant tape or compound per the system manufacturer's recommendations remains a common practice in many installations. Do not overtighten steel fittings, as this can damage threads and compromise seal integrity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: Male NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: Male NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-18 NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.35 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.095 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5500 Series MNPT Elbow\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: 55004\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67950317863218,"sku":"55004","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e646b39bee08357f5dca6518b871f2e2_68630722-b492-4387-babe-e561360b2e37.jpg?v=1791713206","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-55004-90-degree-elbow-1-4-nptf-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
