Parker 269C-2-2 Compression Tube Male Elbow Brass

Product Description

The PARKER 269C-2-2 is a compression tube male elbow fitting designed to connect tubing to a male NPT port in a 90-degree configuration. Constructed from brass, it provides a reliable, leak-resistant joint between a compression-style tube end and a 1/8-27 MNPT threaded port. The fitting is rated to 400 psi maximum working pressure and handles a temperature range from -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F. It conforms to SAE J-512 standards, making it a specification-grade component suitable for fluid and pneumatic line work in trade and industrial applications. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and fluid power mechanics are the typical installers.

This elbow fitting is used in residential and commercial systems where a compression tube must terminate at a male NPT port at a 90-degree angle. Common applications include instrument air lines, hydraulic control tubing, refrigeration accessory lines, and low-pressure fluid distribution systems. The brass construction resists corrosion in most fluid media. The compression-by-MNPT end configuration eliminates the need for flare tooling on the tube side while threading directly into standard NPT-ported components and manifolds.

Key Features

• Brass construction for corrosion resistance in fluid and pneumatic service
• 400 psi maximum working pressure rating
• Temperature range: -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F
• 1/8-27 MNPT thread on male end; compression fitting on tube end
• Conforms to SAE J-512 standard
• 90-degree male elbow configuration for routing tubing away from inline ports

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression tube fitting compatible with 1/8-inch outside diameter tubing and 1/8-27 NPTF-threaded ports on standard fluid and pneumatic system components.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber, HVAC technician, or fluid power mechanic. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any compression fitting. Hand-tighten the compression nut onto the tube end before applying a wrench; do not overtighten, as brass fittings can deform the ferrule. Thread the MNPT end into the receiving port using an appropriate thread sealant compatible with the system media and pressure rating.
