Parker PPB4MTS4-MG Male Swivel Branch Tee 1/4 Inch Od

Product Description

The PARKER PPB4MTS4-MG is a push-to-connect male swivel branch tee tube fitting designed for fast, tool-free fluid line connections in pneumatic and fluid handling systems. Constructed from polypropylene, the fitting handles working pressures up to 150 psi and accepts 1/4 inch outside diameter tubing on both the branch and run ports. The swivel male thread end allows alignment during installation without twisting the connected tubing. This fitting is typically installed by HVAC technicians, plumbers, and industrial maintenance professionals working with push-to-connect pneumatic or water distribution lines.

The PPB4MTS4-MG is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a branch tee connection is needed without soldering, compression tools, or additional fittings. Common install scenarios include pneumatic control lines, water treatment systems, and light-duty fluid distribution manifolds. The polypropylene body resists corrosion and many common chemicals, making it a practical choice for both wet and dry service environments. Package quantity is one fitting per unit.

Installation Notes

Installation does not require special tools — tubing is inserted until it seats and locks in the collet. Before servicing or replacing the fitting, depressurize the line completely and relieve any residual fluid pressure. The swivel male thread should be hand-tightened and then wrench-snugged with appropriate thread sealant per the applicable plumbing or pneumatic code. Verify tubing OD matches the 1/4 inch fitting specification before insertion to ensure a proper seal.
