Norgren 120400400 Union Elbow Fitting 1/4 in Od 260 Psi

Product Description

The NORGREN 120400400 is a push-to-connect union elbow tube fitting designed for tube-to-tube pneumatic connections. Built from nickel-plated brass, it handles a maximum working pressure of 260 psi and operates across a temperature range of -4 degrees F to 175 degrees F. The Pneufit-style push-to-connect design allows fast, tool-free tube insertion for general-purpose pneumatic plumbing. HVAC technicians, pneumatic system installers, and industrial maintenance trades use this type of fitting to make quick-turn elbow connections between two runs of 1/4 inch OD tubing without compression sleeves or solder.

This fitting is suited for general-purpose pneumatic and fluid-control applications where a 90-degree directional change is needed between two tube runs. The 1/4 inch OD tube size is common in residential and light commercial HVAC control lines, compressed-air distribution, and pneumatic instrumentation. The nickel-plated brass construction resists corrosion in damp mechanical rooms and equipment cabinets. It also carries a vacuum rating of 29.5 in-Hg, making it suitable for light vacuum circuits as well as pressure applications.

Key Features

• Push-to-connect design allows tool-free tube insertion and fast assembly
• Nickel-plated brass body resists corrosion in humid or wet environments
• Rated to 260 psi maximum working pressure
• Wide operating temperature range: -4 degrees F to 175 degrees F
• Vacuum-rated at 29.5 in-Hg for dual-service pressure and vacuum circuits
• Tube-to-tube union elbow configuration provides a clean 90-degree directional change

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style push-to-connect replacement or addition fitting for general-purpose pneumatic systems using 1/4 inch OD tubing.

Installation Notes

Depressurize and lock out the pneumatic or fluid circuit completely before removing or installing any fittings. Ensure tubing ends are cut cleanly and squarely with a tube cutter to achieve a proper seal in the push-to-connect collet. To release tubing, depress the collet ring while pulling the tube straight out. Follow applicable system codes and the equipment manufacturer guidelines for maximum allowable working pressure.
