Parker 6-8 Cbz-ss Compression Male Elbow 1/2 in Ss

Product Description

The PARKER 6-8 CBZ-SS is a stainless steel compression tube male elbow fitting designed to connect tubing to a male NPT threaded port at a 90-degree angle. With a 1/2-inch MNPT thread and a compression-style tube connection, this fitting creates a leak-resistant mechanical seal without brazing or welding. It is rated for up to 6,600 psi working pressure, making it suitable for high-pressure fluid and gas systems. Plumbers, pipefitters, and instrumentation technicians install this fitting in applications where directional changes in tubing runs are needed and where a removable, reusable connection is preferred over a permanent joint.

This fitting is used in hydraulic, pneumatic, instrumentation, and process piping systems that require reliable high-pressure performance. The compression-by-MNPT end configuration allows direct connection to threaded ports on valves, manifolds, gauges, or equipment housings. Stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for corrosive environments, high-purity fluid systems, and installations where long service life under pressure cycling is required. It is commonly found in commercial, industrial, and marine plumbing applications.

Key Features

• 6,600 psi maximum working pressure rating for demanding high-pressure service
• Compression x MNPT end connections for tool-accessible, reusable assembly
• 1/2-inch male NPT thread for direct port connection to standard threaded fittings
• Stainless steel construction resists corrosion in harsh or high-purity environments
• 90-degree elbow geometry allows directional changes in tight tubing layouts
• No brazing or welding required for installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression tube male elbow for high-pressure fluid and gas tubing systems with 1/2-inch MNPT threaded ports.

Installation Notes

This fitting is typically installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, or instrumentation technicians. Before installation, depressurize and isolate the system completely and verify the tubing is cut cleanly and deburred to ensure a proper compression seal. Follow applicable IPC and ASME B31 piping code requirements for the system pressure class. Do not overtighten the compression nut, as this can deform the ferrule and compromise the seal integrity.
