Parker 270NTA-4-2 Compression Female Elbow 1/8 in Fnpt

Product Description

The PARKER 270NTA-4-2 is a brass compression tube female elbow fitting designed for fluid and pneumatic line connections in mobile, automotive, and industrial applications. It transitions between a compression tube end and a female NPTF threaded port, creating a secure, leak-resistant 90-degree directional change in tubing runs. The fitting is rated to 150 psi maximum working pressure and handles temperatures from -40 degrees F to 200 degrees F. It is manufactured from brass for corrosion resistance and long service life. Licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, and fleet mechanics install this type of fitting where tube routing must change direction at a threaded port.

This fitting is suited for brake line, fuel line, and hydraulic tubing systems that require DOT-compliant components. The compression-by-FNPT configuration allows connection to 1/8 inch female NPT ports without soldering or flaring. It sees common use in commercial vehicle brake systems, refrigeration line sets, and general-purpose fluid transfer assemblies operating within its rated temperature and pressure range.

Key Features

• Compression x FNPT end connections for tool-assisted, no-solder assembly
• Rated to 150 psi maximum working pressure
• Operating temperature range: -40 degrees F to 200 degrees F
• Brass construction resists corrosion in fluid and pneumatic service
• Meets DOT FMVSS571.106, SAE J1131, and SAE J246 standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression tube female elbow for systems requiring a 1/8 inch NPTF threaded port connection with a compression tube inlet, conforming to DOT FMVSS571.106, SAE J1131, and SAE J246 specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber, HVAC technician, or certified fleet mechanic. Shut off all fluid or pneumatic pressure to the line before disassembly or fitting installation. Ensure the mating tube is cut cleanly and squarely and that the ferrule is seated correctly before tightening the compression nut. Thread engagement at the FNPT port should comply with applicable NPTF sealing practices — do not overtighten, as brass fittings can crack under excessive torque.
