The compression end grips the outside diameter of the tube for a leak-resistant seal without soldering or brazing. The male threaded end uses a 3\/8-18 NPTF thread standard for a pressure-tight mechanical connection. Rated to 1000 psi maximum working pressure and suitable for temperatures from -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F, this fitting handles demanding service conditions in fluid and pneumatic systems. Licensed trade professionals in plumbing, HVAC, and industrial piping install this fitting where a direction change from tubing to a threaded port is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is suited for residential and light commercial applications involving copper, brass, or compatible plastic tubing routed to threaded equipment ports. Typical install scenarios include refrigeration line sets, fuel systems, hydraulic controls, and instrumentation tubing where a 90-degree change of direction is needed at a male NPT connection point. The brass construction makes it a practical choice for water, air, oil, and gas service within the rated pressure and temperature limits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction for corrosion resistance in water, air, oil, and gas service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompression x MNPT end connections eliminate the need for soldering or brazing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-18 NPTF thread standard provides a pressure-tight mechanical seal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1000 psi maximum working pressure for demanding fluid and pneumatic applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWide temperature range: -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e90-degree male elbow configuration for direction changes at threaded ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style compression fitting for use with 3\/8-inch OD tubing terminating at a 3\/8-18 NPTF male-threaded port in fluid, pneumatic, or gas piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a licensed plumber, HVAC technician, or pipefitter. Depressurize and isolate the system before removing or installing any fitting. Ensure the tube end is cut square, deburred, and fully seated against the compression fitting stop before tightening the compression nut. Do not overtighten the compression nut; follow the fitting manufacturer's recommended turns-past-finger-tight procedure and verify the connection for leaks before returning the system to service.\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\u003eTube Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\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: 1000 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  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27121700\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-6-6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541255586098,"sku":"169CA-6-6","price":19.52,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/435f618e0b218c321b22bed5e0cb7600.jpg?v=1785870890","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-169ca-6-6-compression-male-elbow-3-8-18-brass","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
