Parker 6MSEL2N-316 Compression Male Elbow 1/8-27 Npt

Product Description

The PARKER 6MSEL2N-316 is a stainless steel compression tube male elbow fitting designed to connect compression tubing to a male NPT threaded port in a 90-degree configuration. With a 1/8-27 NPT thread size and dual end connections — compression on one side, MNPT on the other — this fitting handles high-demand fluid and gas system applications. It is rated to a maximum working pressure of 6600 psi and a maximum temperature of 1200 degrees F, with a minimum temperature rating of -425 degrees F. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and instrumentation technicians are the primary installers of this fitting.

This fitting is suited for use in instrumentation, process control, hydraulic, and pneumatic systems where a reliable compression-to-NPT transition is required. The 90-degree elbow geometry is useful in tight routing situations where a straight fitting would create excessive line stress or clearance issues. Its 316 stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for corrosive environments, high-purity fluid lines, and applications that demand resistance to oxidation and chemical exposure. Both residential and commercial system builds commonly use this style of fitting.

Key Features

• 316 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in harsh and high-purity service environments
• Maximum working pressure of 6600 psi supports high-pressure hydraulic and pneumatic applications
• Wide temperature range from -425 degrees F to 1200 degrees F covers cryogenic through high-heat service
• 1/8-27 NPT thread standard for consistent, leak-resistant thread engagement
• Compression x MNPT end connections allow direct tube-to-pipe transition without welding or soldering
• 90-degree male elbow configuration simplifies routing in confined or angular installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression tube male elbow for instrumentation and process piping systems requiring a 1/8-27 NPT compression-to-MNPT connection in stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Installation of this fitting should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or qualified instrumentation technician. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before removing or installing any compression fittings. Ensure the compression ferrule is properly seated and the nut is tightened to the fitting manufacturer's standard procedure to achieve a leak-free seal — do not overtighten. Follow applicable ASME and IPC code requirements for the specific system type and pressure rating.
