Parker W68PLP-6M-6R Push-to-connect Male Connector Fitting

Product Description

The PARKER W68PLP-6M-6R is a straight push-to-connect male connector fitting designed for tube-to-male tube connections in pneumatic and fluid system applications. It features a 6mm outside diameter tube connection on one end and a BSPT male thread on the other, allowing fast, tool-free tube insertion without ferrules or compression hardware. The body is nickel-plated brass with a silicone-free grease formulation, rated to 300 psi maximum working pressure. A yellow release button enables quick tube removal during service or reconfiguration. Operating temperature range spans 0 degrees F to 200 degrees F, making it suitable for a broad range of service environments.

This fitting is used in pneumatic control systems, compressed air distribution, and fluid transfer lines found in HVAC controls, industrial automation, and OEM equipment. The BSPT thread type makes it appropriate for metric-thread plumbing configurations common in international and OEM equipment designs. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC controls technicians typically install this fitting during system assembly or service. Its compact profile and straight geometry suit tight panel or manifold installations where inline connections are required.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified plumber, pipefitter, or HVAC controls technician. Depressurize and isolate the system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Ensure BSPT threads are properly sealed with thread sealant appropriate for the media and pressure rating before assembly. Verify tube outside diameter and thread specification match system requirements prior to installation.
