Parker P00152 Steel 90 Elbow 3/8 in Od 1/4-18 Nptf 37 Flare

Product Description

The PARKER P00152 is a steel 90-degree flared tube elbow designed for high-pressure hydraulic and pneumatic tube assemblies. It features a 37-degree flare angle on the tube end and a 1/4-18 NPTF threaded port, providing a leak-resistant, thread-sealing connection without the need for additional sealant tape. Rated to 6000 psi maximum working pressure and 500 degrees F, this fitting is built for demanding fluid power and gas line applications where reliability under pressure and temperature is critical. The elbow changes flow direction by 90 degrees, making it a standard routing solution in tight or angled plumbing runs.

This fitting is suited for hydraulic, pneumatic, and refrigeration-adjacent tube assemblies in industrial, commercial, and mobile equipment environments. It is installed by hydraulic system technicians, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors working with steel tubing that requires a directional change at a connection point. The 3/8-inch tube OD and NPTF port size make it a common choice for moderate-flow circuits in machine tool, mobile hydraulic, and general fluid power systems.

Key Features

• 37-degree flare angle conforms to SAE J514 for secure, leak-resistant tube seating
• 1/4-18 NPTF thread provides a dry-seal connection without tape or compound under normal conditions
• Rated to 6000 psi maximum working pressure for high-pressure fluid power circuits
• Rated to 500 degrees F maximum working temperature for demanding thermal environments
• All-steel construction for strength and compatibility with a wide range of hydraulic fluids
• Meets ISO 8434-2, SAE 071502, and SAE J514 standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard SAE J514 37-degree flare fitting compatible with 3/8-inch OD steel tubing and 1/4-18 NPTF ported components in hydraulic and pneumatic systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic or pipefitting technician. Depressurize and isolate the system completely before disconnecting or installing any fittings. Verify that the mating tube end is properly flared to 37 degrees with a calibrated flaring tool before assembly. Torque to the fitting manufacturer and system design specifications; do not overtighten, as this can damage the flare seat or thread engagement.
