Parker 169PLPNS-4-2 90 Male Elbow Fitting 1/4 Od 1/8 Nptf

Product Description

The PARKER 169PLPNS-4-2 is a push-to-connect 90-degree male elbow tube fitting designed for quick, tool-free tubing connections in pneumatic and fluid systems. Constructed from nickel-plated brass, it accepts 1/4 inch OD tubing on the push-to-connect end and terminates with a 1/8 inch NPTF male thread on the other. The fitting is rated to 300 psi maximum working pressure and handles temperatures from 0 degrees F to 200 degrees F. The release button is made from black, flame-resistant material compliant with the UL94 V-0 standard. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and mechanical contractors install this fitting in compressed air, pneumatic control, and light fluid piping applications.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial applications where 1/4 inch OD tubing must change direction and connect to a 1/8 inch NPTF male-threaded port. Common install scenarios include pneumatic control lines, instrument tubing, compressed air distribution, and HVAC equipment control circuits. The push-to-connect design allows fast field assembly without compression tools or flare equipment, making it practical for service work in tight equipment cabinets or air handlers.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, or pipefitters. Depressurize and isolate the system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Ensure tubing is cut cleanly and squarely and that the OD is free of burrs before inserting into the push-to-connect port. To release tubing, depress the release button fully before pulling the tube free.
