Parker GAME-66 Compression Male Adapter Elbow 3/8 in

Product Description

The PARKER GAME-66 is a compression tube male adapter elbow designed for use with 3/8-inch outside diameter tubing. This fitting transitions a compression tube connection to a male threaded port in a 90-degree elbow configuration. Constructed from Perfluoroalkoxy (PFA) and Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) fluoropolymer materials, it delivers excellent chemical resistance and is well suited for high-purity fluid handling, corrosive media, and applications where metal contamination must be avoided. The plastic grip-style compression mechanism allows for secure, leak-resistant connections without specialized tooling. Plumbers, instrumentation technicians, and chemical process professionals install this fitting in tubing systems requiring reliable fluoropolymer performance.

This fitting is used in industrial, laboratory, and process piping systems where fluoropolymer tubing carries aggressive chemicals, ultrapure water, or other media incompatible with metal fittings. Typical installation scenarios include chemical distribution lines, semiconductor fabrication fluid systems, analytical instrument plumbing, and specialty HVAC or refrigeration applications requiring corrosion-resistant connections. Its compact elbow form factor suits installations where a 90-degree direction change is needed in a confined space.

Key Features

• 3/8-inch tube outside diameter compression connection for a secure, leak-resistant fit
• PFA and PTFE fluoropolymer construction provides outstanding chemical and heat resistance
• Male adapter elbow configuration enables a 90-degree transition to a male threaded port
• Plastic grip-type compression mechanism installs without specialty crimping or flaring tools
• Lightweight design at 0.05 pounds minimizes added load in tubing assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression fitting for 3/8-inch OD fluoropolymer tubing in process, laboratory, and industrial fluid handling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by instrumentation technicians or plumbers familiar with compression-style fluoropolymer fittings. Depressurize and drain the system completely before disconnecting or installing any fittings. Hand-tighten the compression nut first to seat the ferrule, then apply only the additional turns specified by the fitting manufacturer to avoid cracking the fluoropolymer body. Consult applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC for pressure ratings and approved applications before use in regulated systems.
