Parker 270NTA-6-2 Compression Female Elbow 1/8 in Fnpt

Product Description

The PARKER 270NTA-6-2 is a brass compression tube female elbow fitting designed to create a 90-degree directional change in tubing runs while transitioning from a compression tube connection to a female NPT threaded port. Built from brass with a 1/8 inch NPTF thread, it handles working pressures up to 150 psi and operates across a temperature range of -40 degrees F to 200 degrees F. This fitting meets D.O.T. FMVSS571.106, SAE J1131, and SAE J246 standards, making it suitable for use in fluid and pneumatic lines where compliance with those specifications is required. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and hydraulic system installers commonly work with this fitting type.

The 270NTA-6-2 is suited for use in compressed air, pneumatic control, and fluid transfer lines in both residential and light commercial applications. Its compression-by-FNPT end connections allow it to join tubing on one side and thread directly into a female NPT port on the other, making it a practical choice when routing tubing into valves, manifolds, or equipment ports that require a directional change. The 0.217 inch inside diameter supports flow through standard small-bore tubing commonly found in control and instrumentation lines.

Key Features

• Compression x FNPT end connections for easy tubing-to-port installation without soldering
• Brass construction provides corrosion resistance in air and fluid service
• Rated to 150 psi maximum working pressure
• Wide temperature range: -40 degrees F to 200 degrees F
• Meets D.O.T. FMVSS571.106, SAE J1131, and SAE J246 standards
• 1/8 inch NPTF thread for a reliable, leak-resistant threaded connection

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression tube female elbow for pneumatic, fluid transfer, and control line applications requiring a 1/8 inch FNPT port connection with a compression tube inlet.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified plumber, HVAC technician, or pipefitter familiar with compression fittings and NPT threaded connections. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before disassembling or installing any fitting. Hand-tighten the compression nut onto the tubing, then tighten with a wrench to seat the ferrule; avoid over-tightening, which can deform the ferrule or crack the fitting body. Thread sealant or tape appropriate for NPT connections should be applied to the male threads being engaged, per applicable plumbing and pneumatic codes.
