Built from solid brass, it handles a maximum working pressure of 650 psi and a temperature range of -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F. The end connections are compression on one side and male NPTF (National Pipe Taper Fuel) thread on the other, with a thread size of 3\/8-18. This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pipefitters working on fluid and gas distribution systems where a directional change in the line is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis elbow fitting is suited for residential and light commercial applications involving hydraulic, pneumatic, fuel, or fluid lines. It is used wherever a compression tube must transition to a male NPT threaded port on a valve, manifold, or equipment fitting. The NPTF thread standard provides a pressure-tight seal without requiring additional sealant, though jobsite practice and applicable codes may dictate the use of thread sealant tape. Typical install scenarios include refrigeration lines, fuel systems, and general plumbing distribution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction provides corrosion resistance and durability in fluid and gas service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompression x MNPT end connections allow a secure tube-to-pipe transition\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-18 NPTF thread delivers a pressure-tight mechanical seal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 650 psi maximum working pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWide temperature range of -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F suits diverse service conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e90-degree male elbow geometry supports directional routing in tight spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style compression tube male elbow fitting for use in plumbing, HVAC, hydraulic, and pneumatic systems requiring a 3\/8-18 NPTF male thread and a compression tube inlet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or HVAC technician. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any fitting. NPTF threads are designed to seal on the threads themselves, but always follow applicable codes such as the IPC or IFGC regarding the use of thread sealants. Do not overtighten compression fittings; hand-tighten and then apply the additional turns specified by the fitting manufacturer to avoid deforming the compression sleeve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-18\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: 650 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\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 169CA-10-6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51543835377970,"sku":"169CA-10-6","price":36.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/85f9e4a578dddb678d1653dc25093e94_f845169c-daba-458d-a007-0bd0f1329be4.jpg?v=1785922026","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-169ca-10-6-compression-male-elbow-3-8-18-nptf-brass","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
