Parker 32 Vtx-s Steel Male 45 Elbow 2 Inch Tube Od

Product Description

The PARKER 32 VTX-S is a steel 45-degree male elbow tube fitting designed for high-pressure hydraulic and fluid system applications. It connects flared tubing to male NPTF pipe threads using a 37-degree JIC flare on the tube end and a male NPTF thread on the pipe end. Rated to 2000 psi maximum working pressure, this fitting is suited for lines where a directional change is required at a threaded port. The all-steel construction provides durability in demanding industrial, HVAC, and mechanical system environments. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and hydraulic technicians typically install this type of fitting.

This fitting is used wherever a 45-degree directional change is needed between a 2-inch OD flared tube line and a male NPTF-threaded port. Common applications include hydraulic systems, refrigeration and HVAC piping, industrial fluid transfer lines, and heavy-equipment service. The 37-degree flare seat conforms to SAE J514 flared tube fitting standards. Typical install scenarios include equipment manifolds, pump outlets, and control valve ports where space or routing constraints require an angled transition from tube to pipe thread.

Key Features

• 37-degree JIC flare tube end with male NPTF pipe thread end connection
• Rated to 2000 psi maximum dynamic working pressure
• 45-degree elbow angle for directional routing in tight installations
• Steel construction for strength in high-pressure fluid systems
• NPTF thread standard provides a dry-seal connection that resists leakage under pressure

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for hydraulic, refrigeration, and industrial fluid systems requiring a 2-inch OD flared tube to male NPTF pipe thread transition at a 45-degree angle.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed pipefitter, hydraulic technician, or qualified mechanical tradesperson. Depressurize and isolate the fluid system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Inspect the flare seat and threads for damage before assembly. Apply thread sealant compatible with the system fluid to NPTF threads per manufacturer and applicable code requirements; do not overtighten, as steel flare fittings can distort the flare seat if excessive torque is applied.
