Parker 12FEL12N-B Compression Female Elbow 3/4 in Brass

Product Description

The PARKER 12FEL12N-B is a brass compression tube female elbow fitting designed to connect 3/4 inch OD tubing to a female NPT threaded port at a 90-degree angle. It provides a reliable, leak-resistant seal using compression-style end connections on the tube side, eliminating the need for solder or flare tooling at that end. Rated to 1900 psi maximum working pressure, this fitting is suited for high-pressure fluid and gas line applications. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pipefitters install this type of fitting when routing tubing into threaded female ports in tight or angled spaces.

This fitting is used in residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC refrigerant-adjacent fluid lines, compressed air systems, and instrumentation tubing runs where a directional change is needed at a threaded connection point. The compression x FNPT configuration makes it compatible with standard NPT-threaded valves, manifolds, and equipment ports. It is particularly useful in retrofit and repair work where existing threaded ports must be preserved and tubing must change direction without additional fittings.

Key Features

• 90-degree female elbow configuration for directional changes at threaded ports
• Compression x FNPT end connections — no solder or flare required on the tube side
• Brass construction for corrosion resistance and durability in fluid service
• 1900 psi maximum working pressure for demanding system applications
• 3/4 inch tube outside diameter on compression end, FPT thread standard on female end

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression tube fitting for use with 3/4 inch OD tubing and standard female NPT threaded ports in plumbing, HVAC, and instrumentation systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC and local plumbing code requirements. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before disassembly or installation. Proper compression fitting assembly requires the tube end to be cut square and deburred before inserting into the fitting body. Do not overtighten the compression nut, as over-compression can deform the ferrule and compromise the seal.
