Parker 165PLP-8M Push-to-connect Union Elbow 90 Degree

Product Description

The PARKER 165PLP-8M is a push-to-connect union elbow fitting designed for tube-to-tube connections in pneumatic and fluid handling systems. The 90-degree elbow configuration allows a right-angle change of direction without tools or fittings. Constructed from nickel-plated brass with a silicone-free grease and a UL94 V-0 flame-resistant rating, this fitting handles up to 300 psi working pressure across a temperature range of 0 to 200 degrees F. Connection is made by pushing the 8 mm OD tube directly into the fitting body; a yellow release button allows quick disconnection for service or reconfiguration. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pneumatic system installers work with this fitting in both new installations and retrofit applications.

This fitting suits residential and light commercial pneumatic control lines, compressed air distribution, and fluid transfer tubing where an inline 90-degree turn is required. The push-to-connect design is common in HVAC refrigerant-side ancillary controls, pneumatic actuator supply lines, and instrumentation tubing. The 8 mm outside diameter tube size is standard in metric pneumatic and process control plumbing. The compact body keeps overall installed length short, which is useful in tight mechanical spaces or control panels.

Key Features

• Push-to-connect design accepts 8 mm OD tubing with no tools required for connection
• Yellow release button allows quick tube removal for service or reconfiguration
• Nickel-plated brass body provides corrosion resistance in damp or chemically mild environments
• Rated to 300 psi maximum working pressure
• Operating temperature range of 0 to 200 degrees F suits most HVAC and pneumatic applications
• Silicone-free grease construction is compatible with systems that prohibit silicone contamination
• UL94 V-0 flame resistance rating meets common fire-safety requirements for control enclosures

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style push-to-connect tube fitting for pneumatic and fluid system applications using 8 mm outside diameter tubing where a 90-degree union elbow connection is required.

Installation Notes

This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, or pneumatic system technicians. Before servicing any line, depressurize and isolate the tubing circuit completely. Ensure the tube end is cut square and deburred before insertion to achieve a proper seal. Follow applicable codes, including IFGC or IPC where relevant, and the equipment manufacturer's piping requirements for tube material and minimum wall thickness.
