Norgren C01470838 90 Swivel Elbow Tube Fitting 8mm Bspt

Product Description

The NORGREN C01470838 is a brass push-to-connect 90-degree swivel elbow tube fitting designed for pneumatic and fluid distribution systems. It accepts 8mm outside diameter tubing on both tube ports and terminates with a 3/8 inch BSPT male thread. The swivel elbow design allows the male thread end to rotate for easier alignment during installation without disturbing the tube connections. Rated at 150 psi maximum working pressure and suitable for temperatures from 0 degrees F to 175 degrees F, this fitting suits general-purpose compressed air and compatible fluid circuits. A nitrile o-ring provides the sealing interface at the tube connection. Trade plumbers and pipefitters working with BSPT-threaded pneumatic assemblies are the primary installers.

This fitting is intended for general-purpose pneumatic tubing applications where a 90-degree change of direction is needed between an 8mm OD push-to-connect tube run and a BSPT male-threaded port or component. Typical use cases include instrument air lines, actuator supply lines, and pneumatic control panel plumbing in light industrial and commercial environments. The push-to-connect mechanism allows fast tube insertion and removal without additional tooling, reducing assembly time on multi-fitting manifolds or panel builds.

Key Features

• Push-to-connect tube ports accept 8mm OD tubing without additional tools or ferrules
• 90-degree swivel elbow body allows male thread end to rotate for alignment flexibility
• 3/8 inch BSPT male thread for direct connection to BSPT-tapped ports and components
• Brass construction for durability in compressed air and compatible fluid service
• Nitrile o-ring sealing material provides reliable tube-side seals across the rated temperature range
• Rated to 150 psi maximum working pressure for general-purpose pneumatic circuits

Compatibility

Designed for general-purpose pneumatic tubing systems using 8mm outside diameter tubing and 3/8 inch BSPT male-threaded ports. Suitable for use with compressed air and other media compatible with brass body and nitrile o-ring materials.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified pipefitters or pneumatic system technicians. Depressurize and isolate the air or fluid circuit completely before removing or installing any fittings. Apply appropriate thread sealant to the BSPT male threads per the system requirements and applicable plumbing codes; BSPT is a tapered thread that seals on the thread form. Verify tube cut ends are clean, square, and free of burrs before inserting into the push-to-connect ports to ensure a reliable seal.
