Norgren 101670818 Swivel Tee Adapter Bspt 8mm

Product Description

The NORGREN 101670818 is a push-to-connect swivel tee adapter fitting designed for pneumatic and fluid-handling tube runs that require a tee branch with a male BSPT threaded port. The fitting accepts tubing with an 8mm outside diameter on the push-to-connect ends and terminates at a 1/8-inch male BSPT thread on the swivel port. Constructed from nickel-plated brass with a nitrile O-ring seal, it is rated for a maximum working pressure of 260 psi and handles temperatures from 0 degrees F to 175 degrees F. Plumbing and pneumatic technicians use this fitting where space-efficient tee connections are needed without specialized tooling.

This adapter is intended for general-purpose pneumatic or fluid-line assemblies in light industrial, commercial, and trade service environments. The swivel design allows the male BSPT port to rotate during installation, simplifying alignment in confined spaces or when connecting to fixed-position ported components such as valves, cylinders, or manifolds. The push-to-connect mechanism enables tool-free tube insertion, reducing assembly time on panel or machine builds where 8mm tubing is routed through a tee configuration.

Key Features

• Push-to-connect ends accept 8mm OD tubing — no ferrules or wrenches required for tube connection
• Swivel male BSPT port simplifies thread alignment during installation
• 260 psi maximum working pressure rating suitable for pneumatic service
• Nickel-plated brass body resists corrosion in general-purpose environments
• Nitrile O-ring seals compatible with air and many common industrial fluids
• Rated from 0 degrees F to 175 degrees F for broad ambient and media temperature range

Compatibility

Designed for general-purpose pneumatic and fluid-handling systems using 8mm OD tubing and 1/8-inch BSPT ported components.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified plumbing or pneumatic technician. Depressurize and isolate the system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Ensure the BSPT threaded port is sealed with an appropriate thread sealant rated for the media and pressure being used, as BSPT is a parallel thread that requires sealant rather than relying on thread taper alone. Verify that tubing is cut cleanly and squarely before insertion into the push-to-connect ends to maintain a reliable seal.
