Parker 68PLP-6M-4G Push-to-connect Male Connector 300 Psi

Product Description

The PARKER 68PLP-6M-4G is a push-to-connect tube-to-male fitting configured as a straight male connector. It accepts a 6mm outside diameter tube on the push-in end and terminates with a 1/4 inch BSPP male thread on the other. The body is nickel-plated brass with a silver finish and a yellow release button. Maximum working pressure is 300 psi, and the operating temperature range runs from 0 degrees F to 200 degrees F. The fitting meets the UL94 V-0 flame resistance standard and is assembled with silicone-free grease. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and fluid-system installers use this fitting in pneumatic and fluid-handling lines where a push-in tube connection must terminate at a male threaded port.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial pneumatic or fluid-control systems using 6mm OD tubing. Typical applications include compressed-air distribution, instrumentation lines, and HVAC control-line assemblies where a quick push-to-connect tube termination at a male BSPP port is needed. The silicone-free construction makes it compatible with environments where silicone contamination is a concern, such as paint booths or certain sensor installations. The yellow release collar allows fast tube removal without additional tooling.

Compatibility

Designed for use with 6mm outside diameter push-to-connect tubing in pneumatic and fluid-control systems with 1/4 inch BSPP male threaded ports.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified HVAC or pneumatic system technicians. Depressurize and isolate the fluid or air line completely before removing or installing any fitting. Verify thread type before installation — BSPP threads are parallel and require a sealant or bonded seal; they are not interchangeable with NPT or BSPT tapers. Confirm tube OD is 6mm and that the tube end is cut cleanly and squarely to ensure a reliable push-in seal.
