Parker PF-00088 Swivel 45 Male Elbow Fitting 5/8 Od

Product Description

The PARKER PF-00088 is a brass push-to-connect swivel 45-degree male elbow tube fitting designed for use in pneumatic and fluid transfer lines. It accepts 5/8-inch OD tubing on the push-to-connect ends and connects to a 1/2-inch male NPT port. The swivel design allows the fitting to be positioned after installation, reducing stress on tubing and simplifying routing in tight spaces. Rated to 250 psi maximum working pressure, this fitting handles temperatures from -40 degrees F to 200 degrees F. It meets D.O.T. FMVSS571.106, SAE J2494-3, and SAE J844 standards, making it suitable for automotive brake and air line applications as well as general industrial fluid systems.

This fitting is appropriate for residential and commercial pneumatic systems, vehicle air brake lines, and industrial fluid transfer applications where a 45-degree directional change is needed between a tube run and a male NPT port. The push-to-connect design allows quick, tool-free tube insertion while the swivel feature accommodates final alignment adjustments after the NPT thread has been wrench-tightened. Installers working on fleet vehicle air systems, compressor plumbing, or general pneumatic distribution will find this fitting compatible with standard 5/8-inch OD nylon or polyethylene tubing commonly used in those applications.

Key Features

• Swivel body permits post-installation alignment without disturbing the NPT thread seal
• Brass construction provides corrosion resistance and durability in pneumatic and fluid service
• Rated to 250 psi maximum working pressure
• Wide temperature range: -40 degrees F to 200 degrees F
• Meets D.O.T. FMVSS571.106, SAE J2494-3, and SAE J844 standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style push-to-connect fitting for pneumatic and fluid transfer systems using 5/8-inch OD tubing and 1/2-inch male NPT ports, in applications conforming to SAE J844 and SAE J2494-3 tubing standards.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers, pneumatic system technicians, or qualified vehicle brake system mechanics. Depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Apply thread sealant to the NPT male threads per standard practice before tightening; use a wrench on the fitting hex rather than the swivel body to avoid damaging the swivel joint. Confirm tube ends are cut cleanly and squarely and that tubing is fully seated in the push-to-connect collet before returning the system to service.
