Norgren 101471228 90 Swivel Elbow Adapter Bspt Brass

Product Description

The NORGREN 101471228 is a 90-degree swivel elbow adapter in a push-to-connect tube-to-male BSPT configuration, designed for compressed air and pneumatic fluid line assemblies. The fitting accepts a 12 mm outside diameter tube on the push-to-connect end and terminates with a 1/4 inch male BSPT thread on the other. Constructed from nickel-plated brass with a nitrile O-ring, it handles working pressures up to 260 psi and operating temperatures from 0 degrees F to 175 degrees F. It is sized for compact installations where a right-angle directional change in tubing is required without sacrificing swivel adjustment during final positioning.

This fitting is a standard component in pneumatic control panels, automation equipment, and compressed air distribution systems. The swivel elbow design allows the tube exit angle to be set after thread engagement, simplifying routing in tight enclosures or manifold assemblies. Plumbers, pipefitters, and pneumatic system technicians install this type of fitting in both light industrial and commercial applications where BSPT-threaded ports are present and quick tube disconnection is needed for service access.

Key Features

• 90-degree swivel elbow allows tube direction to be adjusted after installation
• Push-to-connect end accepts 12 mm outside diameter tubing for tool-free tube insertion
• 1/4 inch male BSPT thread for connection to BSPT-ported equipment and manifolds
• Nickel-plated brass body resists corrosion in wet and humid pneumatic environments
• Nitrile O-ring provides reliable sealing across the full rated temperature range
• Rated to 260 psi maximum working pressure for standard compressed air service

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit push-to-connect elbow adapter for pneumatic and compressed air systems using 12 mm OD tubing and 1/4 inch BSPT threaded ports.

Installation Notes

Depressurize and lock out the air supply before removing or installing any pneumatic fittings. Ensure the BSPT male thread is wrapped with PTFE thread tape or appropriate thread sealant before engagement, and tighten to hand-tight plus the manufacturer-recommended turns per applicable pneumatic system guidelines. Insert tubing fully into the push-to-connect collet until seated, and tug lightly to confirm retention before repressurizing. Inspect for leaks at both the threaded and push-to-connect ends after returning to service pressure.
