Parker VS269AB-6-8 Compression Male Elbow Brass 400 Psi

Product Description

The PARKER VS269AB-6-8 is a brass compression tube male elbow fitting designed to create a secure, leak-resistant connection between a compression tube line and a male NPTF threaded port. It handles a maximum working pressure of 400 psi and is rated for temperatures from -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F, making it suitable for demanding fluid and pneumatic line applications. The fitting meets D.O.T. FMVSS571.106 and SAE J246 standards, confirming its suitability for regulated hydraulic and brake line service. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and fleet maintenance professionals install this type of fitting when routing tubing at a 90-degree angle into a threaded port in tight or angled plumbing configurations.

This male elbow fitting is used in residential, commercial, and mobile equipment plumbing systems where a compression tube must transition to a male NPTF threaded connection at a right angle. Typical applications include hydraulic lines, pneumatic systems, fuel lines, and brake system plumbing where DOT-compliant brass fittings are specified. The 1/2-14 NPTF thread size and 0.314-inch inside diameter suit a range of standard tubing and port configurations found in light- and medium-duty systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified plumber or mechanical technician familiar with compression fittings and NPTF thread standards. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before disassembly or installation. NPTF threads rely on thread-form interference for sealing; do not use PTFE tape or sealant unless specifically required by the system specification. Follow applicable codes such as FMVSS 571.106 for brake and fluid line work on regulated vehicles.
