Parker W68PLP-6M-4R Push-to-connect Male Connector 6mm

Product Description

The PARKER W68PLP-6M-4R is a straight push-to-connect male connector designed for tube-to-male tube connections in compressed air and fluid control systems. It accepts a 6mm outside diameter tube on the push-to-connect end and threads into a 1/4 inch BSPT male port on the other. The body is nickel-plated brass with a silicone-free grease formulation, making it suitable for environments where silicone contamination must be avoided. Rated to 300 psi maximum working pressure and tested to the UL94 V-0 flame resistance standard, this fitting handles a wide operating temperature range from 0 degrees F to 200 degrees F. The yellow release button allows fast, tool-free tube removal during maintenance or reconfiguration.

This fitting is used in pneumatic plumbing, instrumentation lines, and light industrial fluid systems where a quick, reliable connection between a 6mm tube and a BSPT-threaded port is needed. Typical installations include compressed air distribution panels, pneumatic control circuits, and OEM equipment assemblies. It is well suited for residential and light commercial HVAC control applications, pneumatic actuator supply lines, and any system requiring silicone-free fittings. The straight configuration keeps routing simple in tight enclosures or panel builds.

• Operates from 0 degrees F to 200 degrees F

Compatibility

Designed for use with 6mm outside diameter tubing and 1/4 inch BSPT male threaded ports. Intended for pneumatic and fluid systems requiring BSPT thread engagement and silicone-free fitting components.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by pipefitters, pneumatic technicians, or HVAC controls technicians. Depressurize and de-energize the system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Apply thread sealant appropriate for BSPT connections and the media being conveyed. Ensure tubing is cut cleanly and squarely and is fully seated in the push-to-connect collet before returning the system to pressure.
