Parker W169PLP-12M-8R 90 Swivel Male Elbow 300 Psi Bspt

Product Description

The PARKER W169PLP-12M-8R is a push-to-connect 90-degree swivel male elbow fitting designed for tube-to-male tube connections in pneumatic and fluid systems. Constructed from nickel-plated brass with a silicone-free grease lubricant, it meets the UL94 V-0 flame resistance standard. The fitting handles a maximum working pressure of 300 psi and operates across a temperature range of 0 degrees F to 200 degrees F. The push-to-connect design allows fast, tool-free tube insertion, while the swivel elbow configuration simplifies routing in tight or angled installations. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians commonly install this fitting in compressed air, fluid transfer, and process control lines.

This fitting is suited for applications requiring a 90-degree directional change at a male-threaded port. The 1/2-inch BSPT male thread connects to standard British Standard Pipe Taper ports. With a 12 mm tube outside diameter on the push-to-connect side, it accommodates metric tubing common in OEM equipment, pneumatic control panels, and light industrial plumbing assemblies. The silver body with yellow release button makes tube removal straightforward during system service or reconfiguration.

Key Features

• Push-to-connect tube entry accepts 12 mm outside diameter tubing without tools
• 90-degree swivel male elbow allows flexible tube routing and alignment adjustment
• Nickel-plated brass construction resists corrosion in pneumatic and fluid service
• Rated to 300 psi maximum working pressure
• Temperature range from 0 degrees F to 200 degrees F
• Silicone-free grease lubricant — compatible with sensitive instrumentation and food-adjacent applications
• UL94 V-0 flame resistance rating on internal components

Compatibility

Designed for systems with 1/2-inch BSPT male-threaded ports and 12 mm outside diameter push-to-connect tubing, typical of pneumatic control, compressed air distribution, and light industrial fluid transfer equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified plumber, pipefitter, or HVAC technician familiar with push-to-connect fittings and BSPT thread standards. Depressurize and isolate the system completely before removing or installing any fitting. Ensure the tube end is cut cleanly and squarely and that the outside diameter is within specification before insertion. Verify thread compatibility — BSPT threads are not interchangeable with NPT threads and require proper mating ports to seal correctly.
