Parker 171PLP-8M-6G Swivel Male Run Tee 8mm 300 Psi

Product Description

The PARKER 171PLP-8M-6G is a push-to-connect swivel male run tee fitting designed for tube-to-tube-to-male pneumatic and fluid line connections. Constructed from nickel-plated brass, it accepts an 8mm outside diameter tube on both inline ports and terminates in a BSPP male thread at the branch port. It is rated to 300 psi maximum working pressure and handles temperatures from 0 degrees F to 200 degrees F. The yellow release button allows tool-free tube removal. Silicone-free grease and UL94 V-0 flame resistance compliance make it suitable for applications where silicone contamination or ignition risk must be controlled. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pneumatic system installers typically work with this fitting.

This fitting is used in residential and light commercial pneumatic control lines, compressed air distribution, and fluid handling systems where a run tee with a swiveling male branch is required. The swivel feature simplifies alignment during assembly without stressing connected tubing. The push-to-connect ends allow fast, repeatable tube insertion without tools, making it practical for panel builds, instrument air lines, and HVAC controls applications where 8mm OD tubing is standard.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style push-to-connect fitting for pneumatic and fluid systems using 8mm outside diameter tubing with BSPP male thread termination at the branch port.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, or pneumatic system technicians. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before removing or installing any fitting. Confirm tube cut is clean and square, and that tubing OD matches the 8mm specification before inserting into the push-to-connect port. Verify BSPP thread engagement at the male port is compatible with the mating female thread standard before final assembly.
