Parker PT-00456 Bite-type Tube 90 Elbow 6mm 1/8 Bspp

Product Description

The PARKER PT-00456 is a flareless bite-type tube 90 degree elbow fitting designed for compressed air, hydraulic, and fluid transfer lines in industrial and trade applications. The bite-type design uses a ferrule that bites into the tube wall on tightening, creating a secure, leak-resistant connection without flaring the tube end. This fitting connects a 6 mm outside diameter tube to a 1/8 BSPP female or male port, routing the line at a 90 degree angle. It is installed by HVAC technicians, pipefitters, and industrial maintenance professionals working on pneumatic controls, instrumentation lines, and fluid systems.

This fitting is suited for applications requiring a compact 90 degree direction change in metric tube runs. Typical install scenarios include pneumatic control circuits, instrumentation tubing, hydraulic manifold connections, and light fluid transfer systems. The 1/8 BSPP thread is a parallel British Standard Pipe Parallel thread, commonly found on European-origin equipment, pneumatic valves, and instrumentation components. The 6 mm tube OD is a metric standard size widely used in industrial automation and HVAC control applications.

Key Features

• Flareless bite-type design eliminates tube flaring and creates a ferrule-driven seal on assembly
• 90 degree elbow configuration for compact directional routing in tight installations
• 6 mm outside diameter tube connection compatible with standard metric tube stock
• 1/8 BSPP thread for compatibility with parallel British Standard Pipe Parallel ported components
• Sold in packages of 4 units per package quantity

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for pneumatic, instrumentation, and fluid transfer systems using 6 mm OD metric tubing with 1/8 BSPP ported connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by qualified pipefitters, HVAC controls technicians, or industrial maintenance personnel. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before disassembly or fitting installation. Hand-tighten the fitting nut to seat the ferrule, then advance with a wrench per standard bite-type fitting assembly practice — do not over-tighten. Verify thread type before installation, as BSPP parallel threads are not interchangeable with BSPT tapered threads.
