Parker 10FEL6N-316 Compression Female Elbow 5/8 Od Npt Ss

Product Description

The PARKER 10FEL6N-316 is a stainless steel compression tube female elbow fitting designed to connect tubing to a female NPT-threaded port at a 90-degree angle. It accepts tubing with a 5/8 inch outside diameter on the compression end and transitions to a 3/8-18 NPT female thread on the pipe end. Built from 316 stainless steel, this fitting is rated for extreme service: a maximum working pressure of 6100 psi, temperatures up to 1200 degrees F, and down to -425 degrees F. It is installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and instrumentation technicians in high-pressure or high-temperature fluid and gas systems.

This fitting is suited for demanding industrial, instrumentation, and process piping applications where corrosion resistance and wide temperature range are required. The compression end provides a reliable, leak-tight connection to stainless or compatible metal tubing without welding or flaring. The FNPT end threads into standard NPT female ports on valves, manifolds, instruments, or bulkhead fittings. Typical install scenarios include process lines, hydraulic instrumentation runs, and high-purity fluid systems in commercial and industrial facilities.

Key Features

• 316 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance in harsh chemical and process environments
• Maximum working pressure of 6100 psi for high-pressure system applications
• Wide temperature range: -425 degrees F to 1200 degrees F
• 5/8 inch OD compression end for secure, leak-tight tube connection without flaring
• 3/8-18 NPT female thread end for direct connection to standard NPT-ported components
• Compression x FNPT configuration enables tube-to-pipe transitions at a 90-degree elbow

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression fitting for use with 5/8 inch OD tubing and 3/8-18 NPT female-threaded ports in high-pressure instrumentation, process, and fluid system applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified pipefitter, plumber, or instrumentation technician. Isolate and depressurize the system fully before removing or installing any compression fitting. Hand-tighten the compression nut onto the fitting body, then advance with a wrench per standard compression fitting practice for the tubing material and wall thickness. Verify thread compatibility and sealant requirements in accordance with applicable ASME or process piping codes before making up the NPT connection.
