The compression end grips the tube mechanically for a leak-resistant seal without soldering or flaring. The male NPT end threads directly into a female port on a valve, manifold, or equipment housing. Rated to 200 psi maximum working pressure, it handles temperatures from -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and refrigeration mechanics install this fitting in instrument, hydraulic, and fluid-handling lines where a direction change from tube to pipe thread is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is suited for residential and light commercial applications involving copper, aluminum, or compatible plastic tubing. Typical installations include refrigeration lines, pneumatic controls, fuel systems, and hydraulic circuits where a 90-degree change of direction is needed between a compression tube run and a threaded component port. The NPTF thread standard provides a pressure-tight mechanical seal at the threaded connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e90-degree male elbow routes 3\/8-inch OD tubing to a 1\/4-18 NPTF threaded port\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrass construction resists corrosion in fluid and gas service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompression end seals without soldering, brazing, or flaring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated to 200 psi maximum working pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWide temperature range: -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNPTF thread standard delivers a pressure-tight threaded joint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 3\/8-inch OD tubing and 1\/4-18 NPTF female-threaded ports in fluid, pneumatic, and refrigeration system applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber, HVAC technician, or qualified mechanic. Shut off system pressure and bleed any residual fluid or gas before disconnecting or installing fittings. Ensure the tubing end is cut square, deburred, and clean before seating it into the compression end. Apply an appropriate thread sealant to the NPTF male threads per the system fluid compatibility requirements and applicable plumbing or mechanical codes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Male Elbow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connections\u003c\/strong\u003e: Compression x MNPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-18\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 200 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: -65 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: PARKER\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 169C-6-4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51538246762802,"sku":"169C-6-4","price":16.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/cbe0c3fe840963f2e7f93a7da191627c.jpg?v=1785820705","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-169c-6-4-compression-male-elbow-3-8-od-x-1-4-18-mnpt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
