Parker 16 Dtx-s Steel Flared Tube Female Elbow 1 in Od

Product Description

The PARKER 16 DTX-S is a 90-degree female elbow fitting designed for flared tube connections in hydraulic and fluid-transfer systems. Machined from steel, it connects a 37-degree flared tube end to a female National Pipe Thread Fuel (FNPTF) port. With a maximum working pressure of 1800 psi and a rated temperature ceiling of 500 degrees F (260 degrees C), this fitting handles demanding conditions found in industrial, mobile equipment, and high-pressure plumbing lines. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and hydraulic technicians install this style of fitting when routing tubing through tight-angle changes in a system.

This fitting is suited for use in hydraulic lines, fuel systems, and refrigeration or pneumatic circuits where a 37-degree flare-to-FNPTF transition is required. The 90-degree elbow orientation allows tubing to change direction without field-bending, reducing stress on tubing runs in confined equipment enclosures or panel installations. It is supplied as a single unit and is appropriate for both original equipment assembly and service replacement work in industrial and commercial applications.

Key Features

• 90-degree female elbow geometry for direction changes without tube bending
• 37-degree flare seat conforms to SAE J514 and ISO 8434-2 standards
• Flare x FNPTF end configuration for tube-to-pipe-port transitions
• Rated to 1800 psi maximum working pressure
• Temperature range up to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C)
• Steel construction for durability in high-pressure service

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for hydraulic, fuel, and fluid-transfer systems requiring a 1-inch OD 37-degree flare tube connection to an FNPTF port.

Installation Notes

This fitting is typically installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, or hydraulic technicians. De-pressurize and drain the system fully before removing or installing any fittings. Ensure tube ends are cut square, deburred, and properly formed to a 37-degree flare angle before assembly. Verify thread engagement and flare seating before returning the system to service; overtightening flare fittings can crack the seat or deform the tube end.
