Midland Industries 700095-0606 45 Deg Compression Elbow Brass

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 700095-0606 is a 45-degree compression elbow fitting designed to connect tubing to a male threaded port at an angled run. It features a 3/8-inch compression inlet on one end and a 3/8-inch male national pipe thread fine (MNPTF) on the other, with thread dimensions of 9/16-24 and 3/8-18. Constructed from lead-free brass, this fitting meets requirements for potable water and gas applications where lead-free materials are mandated. The 45-degree angle allows directional changes in tight spaces without the need for additional bends. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this type of fitting.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, refrigeration lines, and gas supply applications. It is rated for temperatures from -40 degrees F to 250 degrees F, making it appropriate for both cold and moderately heated fluid systems. The compression connection eliminates the need for soldering, making it practical for field repairs and retrofits in confined spaces where torches are impractical or code-restricted.

Key Features

• Lead-free brass construction meets codes for potable water and gas applications
• 45-degree angle accommodates directional routing in confined installations
• 3/8-inch compression x 3/8-inch MNPTF connection configuration
• Thread dimensions of 9/16-24 (compression) x 3/8-18 (male NPT)
• Wide temperature range: -40 degrees F to 250 degrees F
• No-solder compression design speeds field installation and repair

Compatibility

Compatible with copper, aluminum, or plastic tubing. Designed as an OEM-style lead-free compression fitting for plumbing, refrigeration, and gas line applications requiring a 3/8-inch compression to 3/8-inch MNPTF angled connection.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water or gas supply and relieve system pressure before disconnecting or installing any compression fitting. Ensure tubing is cut cleanly and squarely, deburred, and fully seated in the compression nut before tightening. Do not overtighten the compression nut, as this can deform the ferrule and compromise the seal.
