Parker W169PLPNS-8-8 90 Male Elbow Push-to-connect 1/2 in

Product Description

The PARKER W169PLPNS-8-8 is a 90-degree male elbow push-to-connect tube fitting constructed from nickel-plated brass. It connects 1/2-inch OD tubing to a 1/2-inch NPTF male thread, providing a right-angle change of direction in compressed air, pneumatic control, or fluid transfer lines. Rated to 300 psi maximum working pressure and suitable for operating temperatures from 0 degrees F to 200 degrees F, this fitting is built for demanding service environments. The push-to-connect mechanism allows tool-free tube insertion, reducing installation time on equipment where quick assembly or field service is required. A black flame-resistant button component meets UL94 V-0 standards.

This fitting is intended for use in pneumatic and fluid conveying systems where a compact 90-degree elbow connection is needed between tubing and a male NPT port. Typical applications include HVAC equipment, pneumatic controls, compressed air distribution, and light hydraulic systems. It is commonly installed by HVAC technicians, pipefitters, and pneumatic system technicians working on both commercial and industrial equipment. The NPTF thread form provides a pressure-tight seal without relying solely on thread sealant.

Key Features

• Push-to-connect design allows fast, tool-free tube insertion and removal
• Nickel-plated brass construction for corrosion resistance in fluid and air service
• 300 psi maximum working pressure rating
• Operating temperature range: 0 degrees F to 200 degrees F
• NPTF thread type provides a pressure-tight mechanical seal
• UL94 V-0 flame-resistant button material for added safety compliance
• Nitrile O-ring for reliable sealing across common pneumatic and fluid media

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style push-to-connect elbow fitting for pneumatic and fluid transfer systems requiring a 1/2-inch OD tube connection to a 1/2-inch NPTF male port in a 90-degree configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with pneumatic or fluid piping systems. Depressurize and de-energize the system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Ensure tubing is cut squarely and deburred before insertion into the push-to-connect port to maintain a reliable seal. Apply appropriate thread sealant to the NPTF threads as required by the applicable installation standard or equipment manufacturer guidelines.
