Parker 1/2 DD45-S 45 Degree Female Pipe Elbow Fnptf

Product Description

The PARKER 1/2 DD45-S is a 45-degree female pipe elbow designed for industrial piping systems requiring a directional change in the line. Machined from zinc-plated steel, this fitting accepts female NPT connections on both ends and carries a maximum working pressure of 3,000 psi. The FNPTF thread form provides a pressure-tight seal without additional sealant tape in many installations, though thread sealant is commonly applied per shop practice. Plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial maintenance technicians install this fitting in hydraulic, pneumatic, and general fluid-service piping assemblies.

This elbow is suited for industrial and commercial piping applications where a 45-degree directional offset is needed at a 1/2 inch threaded connection point. The zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance in mild-environment service. Typical installations include compressed air distribution lines, hydraulic return lines, and general-purpose fluid transfer systems operating within the rated pressure envelope.

Key Features

• 45-degree female elbow geometry for moderate-angle line routing
• 3,000 psi maximum working pressure rating
• FNPTF female thread on both ports for tapered NPT engagement
• Zinc-plated steel construction for strength and mild corrosion resistance
• 1/2 inch thread size fits standard half-inch NPT piping and fittings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for industrial piping systems using 1/2 inch female NPT threaded connections rated up to 3,000 psi.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified pipefitter or plumber in accordance with applicable codes such as the IPC or ASME B31 piping standards. De-energize or depressurize the system fully before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads engaging this fitting, following the sealant manufacturer instructions. Do not exceed the 3,000 psi maximum working pressure rating for this fitting.
