Parker 10-8 Dbz-ss Compression Female Elbow 1/2 in Npt Ss

Product Description

The PARKER 10-8 DBZ-SS is a compression tube female elbow fitting designed to connect tubing to a female NPT port at a 90-degree angle. Constructed from stainless steel, it delivers a secure, leak-resistant connection in demanding fluid and gas distribution systems. The compression-style end accepts tubing without the need for soldering or flaring, while the FNPT end threads directly into standard NPT female ports. With a maximum working pressure of 6100 psi, this fitting is suited for high-pressure instrumentation, hydraulic, and industrial process lines. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and instrumentation technicians typically install this type of fitting in both commercial and industrial applications.

This elbow fitting is used wherever a 90-degree directional change is needed between a compression tube run and a female NPT port. Common applications include instrumentation tubing systems, process control lines, refrigeration or fluid handling circuits, and industrial plumbing assemblies. Its stainless steel construction makes it a reliable choice in corrosive environments or where cleanliness standards must be maintained. The 1/2 inch NPT thread size fits standard pipe and port configurations found throughout commercial and industrial facilities.

Key Features

• Stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in harsh or wet environments
• Maximum working pressure of 6100 psi for high-pressure system compatibility
• Compression x FNPT end connections allow tool-accessible, no-solder installation
• 1/2 inch NPT thread size matches standard pipe port configurations
• 90-degree female elbow geometry redirects tubing runs without additional fittings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression tube female elbow for use in instrumentation, fluid handling, and industrial process piping systems that require a 1/2 inch NPT compression to FNPT connection.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified instrumentation technician in accordance with applicable codes such as the IPC or relevant industry piping standards. Depressurize and isolate the system completely before removing existing fittings or installing this elbow. Use an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape on the NPT threads and ensure the compression ferrule is seated correctly on the tubing before tightening. Do not over-tighten the compression nut, as this may damage the ferrule or tubing wall.
