Parker A6MTS6-MG Male Swivel Branch Tee 3/8 in Od Nptf

Product Description

The PARKER A6MTS6-MG is a push-to-connect male swivel branch tee fitting designed for tube-to-pipe connections in pneumatic and fluid distribution systems. Constructed from polyoxymethylene (POM), this fitting handles working pressures up to 300 psi and routes flow in three directions from a single connection point. The male swivel branch outlet threads into a female port while the push-to-connect ends accept tubing without tools or ferrules. With an EPDM o-ring seal and a gray POM body, it suits clean-air, water, and mild-chemical service lines commonly found in industrial and commercial installations. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and industrial maintenance mechanics are the typical installers.

This fitting is suited for light-to-medium duty pneumatic tubing runs, compressed-air distribution panels, and fluid-handling assemblies where a branched tee with a threaded male swivel port is required. The 3/8 inch outside diameter tube compatibility and 3/8 inch NPTF thread make it a direct-connect solution for standard instrumentation and control-line tubing applications in residential and light commercial environments. It is also used in OEM equipment assemblies where tool-free tube insertion speeds production or field-service time.

Key Features

• Push-to-connect design accepts 3/8 inch OD tubing without ferrules or additional fittings
• Male swivel branch outlet rotates for alignment during installation
• Rated to 300 psi working pressure
• Polyoxymethylene (POM) body resists moisture, mild chemicals, and UV degradation
• EPDM o-ring seal provides reliable leak-free performance in air and water service
• 3/8 inch NPTF thread ensures pressure-tight engagement with female pipe ports

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style push-to-connect replacement fitting for pneumatic and fluid-handling systems using 3/8 inch OD tubing and 3/8 inch NPTF female pipe ports.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, or qualified industrial mechanics. Depressurize and lock out the system completely before removing any existing fittings or inserting tubing. Ensure tubing ends are cut square and deburred before insertion into the push-to-connect collet to achieve a proper seal. Verify thread engagement on the NPTF port meets applicable code requirements and inspect for leaks after restoring system pressure.
