Parker W171PLP-5/32-2 Male Run Tee 5/32in Od 1/8in Nptf

Product Description

The PARKER W171PLP-5/32-2 is a push-to-connect male run tee tube fitting designed for fast, tool-free tube connections in pneumatic and fluid-handling systems. Constructed from nickel-plated brass with a nitrile O-ring, it delivers a rated working pressure of 300 psi and handles temperatures from 0 degrees F to 200 degrees F. The fitting connects two tube runs at 5/32 inches OD while providing a 1/8 inches NPTF male branch port. The black push-button release is made from flame-resistant material rated to UL94 V-0. HVAC technicians, instrumentation mechanics, and plumbing professionals install this fitting where a compact, reliable tee connection is needed without soldering or ferrule compression work.

This fitting is suited for light-duty pneumatic tubing runs in residential and commercial HVAC controls, refrigeration instrumentation lines, and process-control plumbing where 5/32 inches OD tubing meets a 1/8 inches NPTF male port. The push-to-connect design accepts standard semi-rigid and flexible plastic tubing used in control and sensing applications. Its compact 1.69 inches overall length makes it practical in tight equipment enclosures where bulkier compression fittings would not seat cleanly. The nickel-plated brass body resists corrosion in typical indoor mechanical environments.

Key Features

• Push-to-connect design allows tool-free tube insertion and single-button release
• Nickel-plated brass body provides corrosion resistance for indoor pneumatic and fluid service
• Nitrile O-ring seals rated for 300 psi maximum working pressure
• Temperature range from 0 degrees F to 200 degrees F covers typical HVAC and instrumentation service conditions
• UL94 V-0 flame-resistant black release button meets common fire-rating requirements
• NPTF thread form provides a dry-seal connection at the male branch port

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style push-to-connect replacement fitting for pneumatic tubing systems using 5/32 inches OD tube and 1/8 inches NPTF male port connections in HVAC, refrigeration, and instrumentation applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by HVAC technicians, instrumentation technicians, or licensed plumbers working on low-pressure pneumatic or fluid lines. Depressurize and isolate the tubing circuit fully before disconnecting or installing any fitting. Ensure tube ends are cut square and deburred before insertion into the push-to-connect collet to achieve a proper seal. Verify that the NPTF male port is threaded into the mating component with appropriate thread sealant per the system manufacturer and local plumbing or mechanical code requirements.
