Parker A6FE4-MG Push-to-connect Female Elbow 3/8 Od

Product Description

The PARKER A6FE4-MG is a push-to-connect female elbow tube fitting designed for fast, tool-free tube-to-pipe connections in pneumatic and fluid transfer applications. Constructed from polyoxymethylene (POM), this fitting accepts 3/8 inch OD tubing and connects to a 1/4 inch NPTF female threaded port. The 90-degree elbow configuration redirects tubing runs without additional adapters. Rated to 300 psi, it is suitable for compressed air, low-pressure pneumatic controls, and general fluid lines where a reliable push-in connection is required. The tan POM body offers good chemical resistance and dimensional stability across a range of service conditions. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pneumatic system installers commonly use this fitting during panel assembly and equipment hookups.

This fitting is well-suited for residential and light commercial applications involving compressed air distribution, pneumatic control circuits, and fluid handling systems. The push-to-connect design allows tubing to be inserted and locked without threading, crimping, or soldering, which speeds up installation in tight spaces or high-volume panel builds. It is appropriate for use with compatible 3/8 inch OD semi-rigid tubing in systems where the 1/4 inch NPTF port is the standard termination point on valves, manifolds, or equipment housings.

Key Features

• Push-to-connect design allows tool-free tube insertion and secure locking
• 3/8 inch OD tube compatibility with 1/4 inch NPTF female thread connection
• 300 psi pressure rating suitable for compressed air and low-pressure fluid lines
• Polyoxymethylene (POM) construction for chemical resistance and dimensional stability
• 90-degree female elbow geometry redirects tubing without additional adapters
• Tan color body for easy visual identification in mixed-fitting assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as a standard push-to-connect replacement or new-installation fitting for systems using 3/8 inch OD tubing terminating at 1/4 inch NPTF female threaded ports on valves, manifolds, or pneumatic equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by plumbers, HVAC technicians, or pneumatic system technicians. De-pressurize and lock out the system before removing or installing any push-to-connect fitting. Ensure tubing is cut cleanly and squarely with no burrs before inserting into the fitting to achieve a proper seal. Verify NPTF thread engagement is hand-tight plus appropriate turns per IPC or equipment manufacturer guidelines before returning the system to service.
