Constructed from steel, it features a 37-degree flare seat on one end and a male NPTF thread on the other, providing a pressure-rated, leak-resistant joint. With a maximum working pressure of 6000 psi and a maximum working temperature of 500 degrees F, this fitting is suited for demanding service conditions. The 3\/8-inch tube OD and 1\/2-inch NPTF thread make it a compact, reliable directional connector for routing lines around obstructions in tight installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is used in hydraulic systems, pneumatic lines, and fluid-transfer assemblies found in industrial, mobile equipment, and HVAC\/refrigeration piping applications. The 90-degree elbow configuration allows a clean directional change from a flared tube to a threaded port without field fabrication. It is typically installed by pipefitters, hydraulic technicians, and HVAC mechanics building or repairing fluid-line assemblies that require a secure, reusable mechanical joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e90-degree male elbow with 37-degree flare seat conforming to SAE J514 and ISO 8434-2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel construction for strength and compatibility with hydraulic and petroleum-based fluids\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum working pressure of 6000 psi for high-pressure line service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 500 degrees F, suitable for elevated-temperature environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlare x MNPTF end configuration transitions a flared tube to a standard NPTF threaded port\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eComplies with SAE 070202, SAE J514, and ISO 8434-2 standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for hydraulic and fluid-transfer systems requiring a 3\/8-inch OD flared tube connection to a 1\/2-inch male NPTF port.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified pipefitter, hydraulic technician, or HVAC mechanic. De-pressurize and isolate the system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Ensure the mating tube end is properly flared to the 37-degree SAE specification before assembly; an improperly flared seat will compromise the pressure rating. Follow applicable NPTF thread engagement practices per ASME and SAE guidelines, and inspect for leaks before returning the system to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: 90 Degree Male Elbow\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch MNPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flare x MNPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlared Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 37 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6000 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 500 degrees F (260 degrees C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISO 8434-2, SAE 070202, SAE J514\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: PARKER\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6-8 CTX-S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542757114162,"sku":"6-8 CTX-S","price":38.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/636fd0a098856f7931eb7c95b2aaa245.jpg?v=1785906435","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-6-8-ctx-s-steel-flared-tube-male-elbow-3-8-in-od","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
