Parker 165PLP-8 Push-to-connect Union Elbow 1/2 in Od

Product Description

The PARKER 165PLP-8 is a push-to-connect union elbow tube fitting designed for tube-to-tube connections in pneumatic and fluid transfer systems. It accepts 1/2 inch OD tubing and delivers a rated maximum working pressure of 300 psi. The body is nickel-plated brass, and the release button is molded from a black flame-resistant material rated UL94 V-0. The nitrile O-ring provides a reliable seal across a broad operating temperature range. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and industrial pipe fitters use this fitting where a 90-degree directional change is needed without threaded connections or tools.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial pneumatic lines, compressed air distribution, and fluid transfer applications where push-to-connect speed and repeatability are priorities. The UL94 V-0 flame-resistant button rating makes it appropriate for installations where fire-resistance compliance is a specification requirement. It operates within a temperature range of 0 degrees F to 200 degrees F, covering most typical mechanical room and equipment environments.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber, HVAC technician, or qualified pipefitter. De-pressurize and lock out the system before inserting or removing any fitting. Verify that tubing is cut square and deburred before seating it fully into the fitting body to ensure a leak-free connection. Confirm the tubing material and system fluid are compatible with nickel-plated brass and nitrile before installation.
