Parker P00169 Steel Female Outlet Tee 1 in Flare X Npt

Product Description

The PARKER P00169 is a steel female outlet tee fitting designed for flared tube connections in fluid and gas line assemblies. It features a 37-degree flare angle and accepts a 1-inch tube outside diameter on both flare ends, with an NPT threaded outlet. The fitting delivers a maximum dynamic working pressure of 1800 psi, making it suitable for demanding hydraulic and pneumatic plumbing applications. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and fluid power mechanics install this type of fitting where a branch connection must transition between flared tubing and NPT-threaded pipe or component ports.

This fitting is used in residential and commercial fluid systems where copper, steel, or compatible tubing must branch at a tee junction while also interfacing with NPT-ported equipment or manifolds. The flare-by-flare-by-NPT end configuration makes it appropriate for refrigeration lines, fuel systems, hydraulic circuits, and similar applications requiring a leak-resistant mechanical joint at elevated pressures. It is a stocking replacement-style fitting intended for one-at-a-time replacement or small-run installations.

Key Features

• 37-degree flare angle on both flare ends for standard JIC-compatible flared tube connections
• 1-inch tube outside diameter sizing on flare inlets
• NPT threaded female outlet for direct connection to standard pipe-threaded ports
• Maximum dynamic working pressure rated at 1800 psi
• Steel construction for durability in high-pressure fluid and gas service
• Flare x Flare x NPT end configuration enables inline tee branching with mixed connection types

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for systems using 1-inch OD flared steel tubing with NPT-ported components. No specific model or system compatibility data was provided in the product input.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, HVAC technician, or qualified fluid power mechanic familiar with flared tube fitting procedures. Depressurize and isolate the system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Flare ends require properly prepared tube flares to the correct 37-degree angle; damaged or out-of-spec flares will not seal reliably at rated pressure. Consult applicable codes such as the IPC or IFGC for installation requirements relevant to the specific fluid or gas being conveyed.
