Parker 164PLP-6M Push-to-connect Union Tee 6mm 300 Psi

Product Description

The PARKER 164PLP-6M is a push-to-connect union tee tube fitting designed for tube-to-tube-to-tube connections in pneumatic and fluid distribution systems. Constructed from nickel-plated brass with a silicone-free grease lubricant, it accepts 6mm outside diameter tubing on all three ports. The fitting operates up to 300 psi maximum working pressure across a temperature range of 0 degrees F to 200 degrees F. The yellow release button allows for tool-free tube insertion and removal, making field service and system reconfiguration straightforward. It meets the UL94 V-0 flame resistance standard. HVAC technicians, plumbers, and industrial service professionals install this type of fitting in compressed air lines, pneumatic control circuits, and low-pressure fluid systems.

The 164PLP-6M is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a compact, leak-free tee connection is needed without threaded fittings or compression tools. Its push-to-connect design reduces installation time in tight spaces and panel assemblies. The silver nickel-plated brass body resists corrosion in typical indoor mechanical environments. The silicone-free construction makes it compatible with systems where silicone contamination is a concern, such as paint booths or certain pneumatic instrument circuits.

Compatibility

Designed for use with 6mm outside diameter tubing in push-to-connect pneumatic and fluid system configurations. Suitable as an OEM-style or replacement union tee in compressed air, pneumatic control, and low-pressure fluid distribution lines requiring tube-to-tube-to-tube tee connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, or qualified industrial mechanics. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before removing or installing any push-to-connect fitting. Ensure tubing ends are cut squarely and cleanly with no burrs before insertion — ragged cuts are a common source of leaks with push-to-connect fittings. Press the yellow release button firmly and evenly when removing tubing to avoid damaging the internal collet.
