Parker 365HB-10N Barbed Tube Union Elbow 5/8 in

Product Description

The PARKER 365HB-10N is a single-barb tube union elbow fitting designed to join two flexible tubes at a 90-degree angle in a wide range of fluid-handling and food-service applications. Molded from white nylon, this union elbow accepts 5/8 inch inner diameter tubing on both ports and is rated for working pressures up to 125 psi. The fitting carries FDA compliance and meets NSF/ANSI 51 standards, making it suitable for systems that contact food-grade or potable-water-adjacent fluids. Licensed plumbers, fluid system technicians, and food equipment service professionals are the typical installers for this type of barbed fitting.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial fluid distribution systems where flexible tubing requires a directional change. Common install scenarios include beverage dispensing equipment, food processing lines, water filtration assemblies, and other systems requiring NSF/ANSI 51 compliance. The single-barb design provides a secure grip on the tube wall when used with an appropriate clamp or fastener. The nylon construction performs across a wide temperature range, from -40 degrees F to 200 degrees F, which covers most indoor mechanical and food service environments.

Key Features

• Single-barb union elbow connects two lengths of 5/8 inch ID flexible tubing at 90 degrees
• Rated to 125 psi working pressure
• Temperature range: -40 degrees F to 200 degrees F (-40 degrees C to 93.3 degrees C)
• FDA compliant and NSF/ANSI 51 certified for food-contact fluid systems
• White nylon construction resists corrosion and chemical exposure common in food service environments

Compatibility

Designed for use with flexible tubing having a 5/8 inch inner diameter and a 0.66 inch outer diameter. Suitable as a standard union elbow fitting in food-grade fluid handling, beverage, and water filtration systems requiring NSF/ANSI 51 compliant components.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers or fluid system technicians. Depressurize and drain the system completely before removing or installing any barbed fitting. Ensure tubing is cut cleanly and squarely, then push firmly onto the barb until the tube seats fully against the fitting shoulder. A hose clamp or crimp ring should be used to secure the tube to the barb and maintain a leak-free connection at rated pressure.
