Parker 16 Clo-s Male Elbow 1 in Tube Od Orfs X Nptf

Product Description

The PARKER 16 CLO-S is a compression tube male elbow fitting designed for high-pressure hydraulic and fluid-handling applications. It connects 1-inch OD tubing to a 1-inch 11.5 TPI NPTF male thread using an O-Ring Face Seal (ORFS) interface on the tube side. Constructed from zinc-plated steel, this fitting provides corrosion resistance in demanding environments. It is rated for a maximum working pressure of 3000 psi, making it well suited for hydraulic lines, lube systems, and industrial fluid circuits. The elbow configuration allows a directional change at the connection point without the need for an additional adapter.

This fitting is used in residential, commercial, and industrial fluid-power systems where a 90-degree tube-to-pipe transition is required. Typical applications include hydraulic power units, mobile equipment hydraulic lines, and industrial plumbing assemblies. The ORFS interface on the tube end provides a leak-free metal-to-face seal, while the NPTF thread on the male end creates a pressure-tight connection with a mating female NPTF port. This part is sold individually and is appropriate for installations requiring a single fitting replacement or new circuit assembly.

Key Features

• ORFS x NPTF end connections for a leak-free tube-to-pipe transition
• Rated to 3000 psi maximum working pressure
• Zinc-plated steel construction for corrosion resistance
• 1-inch tube OD compression fitting for secure tube retention
• 1-inch 11.5 TPI NPTF male thread for pressure-tight pipe port engagement
• 90-degree elbow geometry allows directional routing without additional adapters

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for hydraulic and fluid-power systems using 1-inch OD tubing with ORFS tube connections and 1-inch NPTF female port interfaces.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician or pipefitter. Depressurize and drain the system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Inspect the ORFS face seal surface and O-ring for nicks or damage before assembly, and replace the O-ring if any deformation is present. Torque the NPTF thread to the fitting manufacturer's recommended value and verify there are no leaks before returning the system to service.
