Parker 229-4-5/32-2 Barbed Tube 90 Elbow 1/8-27

Product Description

The PARKER 229-4-5/32-2 is a brass barbed tube 90-degree elbow fitting designed for low-pressure fluid and pneumatic tubing connections. It combines a barbed tube end with a threaded male fitting, allowing a 90-degree change of direction in tubing runs without additional adapters. The barbed end accepts 5/32 inch OD tubing with a 0.096 inch inside diameter, while the threaded end is sized at 1/8-27. Brass construction provides corrosion resistance and durability in a range of plumbing, pneumatic, and fluid-handling applications. This fitting is installed by plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pneumatic system technicians in both residential and light commercial settings.

This fitting is suited for use in compressed air lines, water supply tubing, and general fluid transfer systems where a 90-degree directional change is needed in a compact space. It is commonly used in equipment panels, appliance connections, and instrument plumbing where 5/32 inch OD tubing interfaces with a 1/8-27 threaded port. The barbed design allows a secure, push-on connection that can be reinforced with a clamp when required by the application or local code.

Key Features

• 90-degree elbow configuration for directional tubing changes in tight installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for systems using 5/32 inch OD tubing and 1/8-27 threaded ports in pneumatic, fluid-handling, or plumbing applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or HVAC and pneumatic technicians. Shut off and depressurize the system before removing or installing any fittings. Apply appropriate thread sealant to the male threads per local code requirements. Ensure the tubing is fully seated over the barb and secured with a clamp where the application or system pressure demands it.
