Smc Pneumatics KQ2L05-07A Reducer Elbow Fitting 3/16 in

Product Description

The SMC PNEUMATICS KQ2L05-07A is a push-to-connect plug-in reducer elbow tube fitting designed for use in pneumatic and fluid-handling plumbing systems. This fitting accepts 3/16 inch OD tubing and reduces to a 1/4 inch stem outside diameter, allowing quick, tool-free connections in tight or angled routing layouts. Constructed from brass and polybutylene, it is rated to a maximum working pressure of 145 psi and handles temperatures from 23 degrees F to 140 degrees F. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pneumatic system technicians typically source this fitting for compressed air or fluid line assemblies where a direction change and size transition are needed in a single component.

This reducer elbow fitting is suited for residential and light commercial pneumatic tubing systems, compressed air distribution lines, and general-purpose fluid conveyance applications. Its push-to-connect design eliminates the need for threads, solder, or adhesives at the fitting connection, speeding up assembly and reducing the risk of installation error. It is appropriate for use wherever 3/16 inch OD tubing must transition to a 1/4 inch stem port at a 90-degree angle change.

Installation Notes

Depressurize and isolate the line before removing or installing any push-to-connect fitting. Ensure the tubing end is cut cleanly and squarely to achieve a proper seal on insertion. This fitting is typically installed by licensed plumbers or qualified pneumatic system technicians following applicable local codes. Do not exceed the rated working pressure or temperature limits of the fitting.
