Parker 8MSEL4N-B Compression Male Elbow 1/4 in Brass

Product Description

The PARKER 8MSEL4N-B is a compression tube male elbow fitting designed to create a 90-degree directional change in tubing runs while transitioning from a compression connection to a male NPT threaded port. Constructed from brass, this fitting handles working pressures up to 2200 psi, making it suitable for demanding fluid and gas line applications. The 1/4-inch thread size accommodates standard compression tubing on one end and connects directly to a male NPT port on the other. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this fitting when routing copper or soft-metal tubing into threaded ports on valves, manifolds, or equipment panels.

This fitting is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC refrigerant and instrument lines, and pneumatic control systems where a reliable compression-to-MNPT transition is required at a 90-degree angle. Its brass construction resists corrosion in wet and humid environments, and the compression design allows for a leak-tight seal without soldering or flaring. It is commonly installed in tight spaces where a straight fitting would not allow adequate tube routing clearance.

Key Features

• 90-degree male elbow routes tubing at a right angle into MNPT threaded ports
• Brass construction provides corrosion resistance for wet and humid service environments
• Rated to 2200 psi maximum working pressure for demanding fluid and gas applications
• Compression x MNPT end connections allow tool-free tube insertion with a threaded port exit
• 1/4-inch thread size fits standard compression tubing and 1/4-inch NPT threaded fittings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or retrofit compression tube male elbow for 1/4-inch compression tubing systems with male NPT port connections in plumbing, HVAC, and pneumatic applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or qualified HVAC technician. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any compression fitting. Use appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape on the MNPT threads per applicable IPC and IFGC guidelines. Do not overtighten the compression nut, as this can deform the ferrule and compromise the seal.
