Parker VS269AB-4-4 Compression Male Elbow 1/4-18 Nptf Brass

Product Description

The PARKER VS269AB-4-4 is a brass compression tube male elbow fitting designed to create a reliable, leak-resistant connection between compression tubing and a male NPTF threaded port. The fitting joins a compression-style tube end to a 1/4-18 NPTF male thread in a 90-degree elbow configuration. Rated for a maximum working pressure of 400 psi and a temperature range of -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F, it is built for demanding fluid and pneumatic line applications. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and fluid-systems mechanics install this fitting in both mobile and stationary equipment where a direction change in a compression tubing run is required.

This fitting is suited for hydraulic, pneumatic, and fluid transfer lines that require a compression-to-male-NPTF transition at a 90-degree angle. It meets D.O.T. FMVSS571.106 and SAE J246 standards, making it appropriate for use in regulated mobile equipment and brake-line assemblies as well as general industrial plumbing systems. Its compact brass construction fits in tight installation spaces where routing a straight fitting is not practical.

Key Features

• 90-degree elbow routes tubing where straight fittings cannot
• Brass construction resists corrosion in fluid and pneumatic service
• 400 psi maximum working pressure for demanding line applications
• Wide temperature range: -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F
• Meets D.O.T. FMVSS571.106 and SAE J246 standards
• 1/4-18 NPTF male thread provides a dry-seal connection without sealant tape in many applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression tube male elbow fitting for fluid and pneumatic systems requiring a 1/4-18 NPTF male thread connection at a 90-degree angle.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, or fluid-systems mechanics. Before servicing any line, depressurize the system completely and purge residual fluid. NPTF threads are designed for dry-seal engagement, but verify system requirements before applying thread sealant. Torque the fitting to the tubing nut hand-tight first, then tighten with an appropriate wrench per the system manufacturer's assembly procedures.
