Parker 270NTA-6-6 Compression Female Elbow 3/8 in Brass

Product Description

The PARKER 270NTA-6-6 is a brass compression tube female elbow designed to connect tubing to a female NPT port at a 90-degree angle. It accepts a compression-style tube on one end and threads into a standard FNPT fitting on the other. Rated to 150 psi maximum working pressure, this elbow handles temperatures from -40 degrees F to 200 degrees F, making it suitable for a wide range of fluid and pneumatic line applications. The brass construction provides corrosion resistance and reliable sealing in compressed air, hydraulic, and fluid transfer systems. It meets DOT FMVSS571.106, SAE J1131, and SAE J246 standards. Installation requires no special tools beyond standard wrenches and proper thread sealant.

This fitting is used in residential and commercial applications where a tubing run must change direction and terminate at a female NPT port. Typical install scenarios include pneumatic control lines, brake system tubing, refrigerant or fluid transfer circuits, and instrument tubing connections in HVAC, plumbing, and light industrial equipment. The 3/8 inch thread size and compression-by-FNPT configuration suit tight-space routing where rigid tube must meet a threaded port.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for compression tube systems using 3/8 inch NPTF female ports in pneumatic, hydraulic, and fluid transfer applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified plumber, HVAC technician, or fluid systems mechanic familiar with compression fittings and NPT thread practice. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant to the FNPT threads per the system fluid compatibility requirements. Do not overtighten the compression nut, as brass fittings can crack under excessive force.
