Parker 329HB-10-12N Barbed Male Elbow 5/8 in Barb 3/4 in Npt

Product Description

The PARKER 329HB-10-12N is a single-barb male elbow fitting designed for connecting flexible tubing to threaded pipe or equipment ports. Constructed from white nylon, it accepts tubing with a 5/8 inch inside diameter and a 0.69 inch outside diameter, and threads into a 3/4 inch NPT female port. The elbow configuration allows a directional change in the tubing run without additional fittings. Rated to 125 psi maximum working pressure and a temperature range of -40 degrees F to 200 degrees F, this fitting suits a wide range of fluid-handling applications where a lightweight, corrosion-resistant connector is required. It meets FDA compliance and NSF/ANSI 51 standards, making it appropriate for food-equipment and potable-water-adjacent installations.

This fitting is used in residential and light commercial fluid-handling systems including food service equipment, water treatment lines, beverage dispensing, and HVAC condensate or auxiliary tubing runs. The 90-degree male elbow orientation is well suited to installations where tubing must transition from a threaded port to a routed line in a confined space. Plumbers, food equipment technicians, and HVAC service professionals commonly install this type of fitting where nylon construction and food-grade certification are required by equipment manufacturers or local codes.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for fluid-handling systems requiring a 5/8 inch barb single-barb male elbow with 3/4 inch NPT thread in nylon construction.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or qualified service technician. Shut off fluid supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any fitting. Apply thread sealant tape or compound to the NPT male threads per local plumbing code requirements before threading into the female port. Do not overtighten nylon fittings; hand-tighten plus a partial turn with a wrench is generally sufficient to prevent thread damage.
