Parker FAME-64 Compression Female Adapter Elbow 3/8 in

Product Description

The PARKER FAME-64 is a compression tube female adapter elbow designed for fluid handling systems that require a reliable, chemically resistant tube-to-female-thread connection. Constructed from Perfluoroalkoxy (PFA) and Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), this fitting handles aggressive media that would degrade standard brass or stainless fittings. It accepts a 3/8 inch tube outside diameter and uses a plastic grip-type compression mechanism to secure the tube without the need for soldering or flaring. This part is typically installed by plumbers, HVAC technicians, and process equipment technicians working on chemical-resistant or high-purity fluid circuits.

The FAME-64 is suited for applications where corrosive chemicals, high-purity fluids, or aggressive gases are conveyed through tubing systems. The elbow configuration allows directional changes in the tubing run where space or routing constraints require a 90-degree transition. It is sold individually and is appropriate for both light industrial and laboratory-grade fluid system assemblies where PFA and PTFE materials are specified for compatibility with the process media.

Key Features

• PFA and PTFE construction provides broad chemical resistance and low contamination risk
• Compression-style fitting accepts 3/8 inch OD tubing without soldering or flaring
• Female adapter elbow configuration enables 90-degree direction changes at threaded connection points
• Plastic grip-type compression mechanism for secure tube retention
• Sold as a single unit for precise quantity purchasing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression fitting for use with 3/8 inch OD plastic or PTFE tubing in chemical-resistant fluid handling systems.

Installation Notes

This fitting is typically installed by plumbers or process piping technicians working on chemical or high-purity fluid systems. Shut off all fluid supply and depressurize the line completely before removing or installing any compression fitting. Ensure the tube end is cut cleanly and squarely and that the tube OD matches the 3/8 inch specification before seating. Follow applicable IPC or facility-specific codes for chemical service piping installations.
