Parker VS269NTA-3-2 Compression Male Elbow 1/8 in

Product Description

The PARKER VS269NTA-3-2 is a brass compression tube male elbow fitting designed to connect tubing to a male NPT threaded port at a 90-degree angle. It uses a compression-style tube connection on one end and a 1/8 inch NPTF male thread on the other, creating a reliable, leak-resistant joint without soldering or brazing. Rated to 150 psi maximum working pressure, it handles temperatures from -40 degrees F to 200 degrees F. The brass construction provides good corrosion resistance in a wide range of fluid and pneumatic service applications. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and instrumentation mechanics are the typical installers for this fitting type.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial installations where 1/8 inch NPTF threaded ports are used alongside compression tubing runs. Common applications include instrument lines, refrigeration sensing lines, pneumatic control circuits, and small-bore fluid distribution systems. The compression end accommodates tubing with an inside diameter of 0.087 inches. Its compact elbow geometry is useful in tight-clearance panel or equipment enclosure installations where a straight fitting cannot make the directional change.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation compression tube male elbow for systems using 1/8 inch NPTF threaded ports with compression tubing connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, HVAC technician, or qualified instrumentation mechanic. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before disassembly or fitting installation. Hand-tighten the compression nut first, then advance with a wrench per standard compression fitting practice — do not overtighten, as brass compression fittings can crack if over-torqued. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the NPTF male threads in accordance with applicable plumbing or mechanical codes.
