Parker PPB4ME6-MG Push-to-connect Male Elbow 1/4x3/8

Product Description

The PARKER PPB4ME6-MG is a push-to-connect male elbow tube fitting designed for quick, tool-free connections in pneumatic and fluid transfer lines. It accepts tubing with a 1/4 inch OD on one end and connects to a 3/8 inch OD male threaded port on the other, forming a 90-degree directional change in the line. The body is molded from polypropylene, rated to 150 psi working pressure. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and industrial service pros use this fitting where a compact, removable elbow connection is needed without soldering, flaring, or compression tooling.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial applications including RO water systems, pneumatic control lines, refrigeration condensate drain connections, and other low-pressure fluid or air circuits. The male thread end installs directly into a port, valve, or manifold, while the push-to-connect end accepts compatible polypropylene or nylon tubing. Its compact footprint — 1.04 inches tall and 0.68 inches wide — makes it practical in tight equipment cabinets and equipment rooms where routing space is limited.

Key Features

• Push-to-connect design allows tool-free tube insertion and secure hold without compression rings or solder
• 90-degree male elbow configuration routes tubing away from inline ports and valves
• Polypropylene construction resists corrosion and is compatible with a range of water-based and mild chemical media
• Rated to 150 psi working pressure for reliable performance in low-to-medium pressure pneumatic and fluid systems
• Compact body dimensions suit installs in confined equipment enclosures

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style push-to-connect replacement elbow fitting for low-pressure pneumatic, water, and fluid transfer systems using 1/4 inch OD tubing with a 3/8 inch male port connection.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by plumbers, HVAC technicians, or qualified maintenance technicians. Before installing or removing this fitting, shut off supply pressure and depressurize the line completely. Insert tubing squarely into the push-to-connect end until it seats fully against the internal stop. To release tubing, depress the collet ring evenly while pulling the tube straight out — angled pulling can damage the internal seal.
