Parker 3-4 Cbz-ss Compression Male Elbow 3/16 in Ss

Product Description

The PARKER 3-4 CBZ-SS is a stainless steel compression tube male elbow fitting designed to connect 3/16-inch OD tubing to a male NPT threaded port at a 90-degree angle. Built for high-pressure fluid and gas line applications, this fitting handles up to 10,300 psi working pressure. The compression end grips the tube mechanically without soldering or welding, creating a reliable, leak-resistant seal. The male NPT end threads directly into a female-threaded port or manifold. It is typically installed by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, instrumentation fitters, and industrial maintenance professionals working with small-diameter tubing systems.

This fitting is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC refrigerant and instrument lines, pneumatic systems, and hydraulic control circuits where a directional change from tubing to a threaded port is required. The stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for corrosive environments, high-purity fluid service, and installations where carbon steel fittings are not suitable. The 3/16-inch OD tube size and MNPT thread configuration are common in instrumentation and control-line work.

Key Features

• Stainless steel body for corrosion resistance in demanding service environments
• Rated to 10,300 psi maximum working pressure
• Compression x MNPT end connections allow tubing to threaded-port transitions
• Fits 3/16-inch outside diameter tubing
• No soldering or welding required on the compression end
• Male NPT thread conforms to MPT thread standard for broad fitment

Compatibility

Designed for use with 3/16-inch OD tubing systems using compression-style fittings and female NPT threaded ports. Suitable for instrumentation, pneumatic, hydraulic, and plumbing applications requiring a 90-degree compression-to-male-thread transition.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber, HVAC technician, or instrumentation fitter. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before removing any existing fitting or installing this one. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the MNPT threads in accordance with system requirements and local plumbing codes. Do not overtighten the compression nut — follow the fitting manufacturer torque procedure based on tube material and wall thickness.
