Parker W169PLP-6-2 90 Male Elbow 3/8 Od 1/8 Nptf 300 Psi

Product Description

The PARKER W169PLP-6-2 is a push-to-connect 90-degree male elbow tube fitting designed for fast, tool-free tube connections in fluid and pneumatic systems. It accepts 3/8-inch OD tubing on both push-in ports and connects to a 1/8-inch NPTF male thread, allowing inline directional changes without compression sleeves or ferrules. Constructed from nickel-plated brass, the fitting handles a maximum working pressure of 300 psi and a temperature range of 0 degrees F to 200 degrees F. The push-button release collar is molded from black flame-resistant material rated to the UL94 V-0 standard. This fitting is installed by HVAC technicians, plumbers, and industrial mechanics in control line, instrument, and general fluid-transfer applications.

The W169PLP-6-2 suits residential and light commercial applications where tubing must change direction at a threaded port without a fitting adapter stack. Typical install scenarios include refrigeration control circuits, pneumatic actuator supply lines, compressed-air distribution branches, and fluid-monitoring instrument lines. The Tube x MNPT x Tube x Male connection geometry makes it straightforward to transition from threaded pipe to push-in tubing runs on both sides of the elbow. The nitrile O-ring seal is compatible with a broad range of media encountered in HVAC and plumbing service work.

Key Features

• Push-to-connect design allows tool-free tube insertion and push-button tube release
• 90-degree male elbow geometry for directional changes at a threaded port
• Nickel-plated brass body for corrosion resistance in wet or humid environments
• 300 psi maximum working pressure rating
• Operating temperature range of 0 degrees F to 200 degrees F
• UL94 V-0 rated flame-resistant black push-button collar
• Nitrile O-ring seal for compatibility with common refrigerants and fluids

Compatibility

Designed for use with 3/8-inch OD tubing and 1/8-inch NPTF male threaded ports in pneumatic, refrigeration control, and fluid-transfer systems requiring a push-to-connect 90-degree elbow transition.

Installation Notes

This fitting is installed by HVAC technicians, plumbers, or industrial mechanics. Depressurize and isolate the line before removing or installing the fitting. Ensure tubing ends are cleanly cut, deburred, and free of contaminants before inserting into the push-to-connect port. Thread the NPTF male end hand-tight first, then tighten with a wrench to avoid cross-threading; apply thread sealant as required by applicable codes such as the IFGC or IPC for the specific media.
