Smc Pneumatics KQ2W09-35AS Extended Male Elbow Fitting

Product Description

The SMC PNEUMATICS KQ2W09-35AS is a push-to-connect extended male elbow tube fitting designed for pneumatic and fluid distribution lines. It accepts 5/16-inch OD tubing and connects to a 1/4-inch NPT male thread port. The extended elbow geometry provides clearance in tight installations where a standard elbow would conflict with adjacent components. Constructed from brass with a polybutylene tube contact zone, it is rated to 145 psi maximum working pressure and handles temperatures from 23 degrees F to 140 degrees F. HVAC technicians, plumbers, and industrial pipefitters install this type of fitting in compressed air, low-pressure pneumatic control, and fluid transfer systems.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial pneumatic control lines, instrument air tubing runs, and HVAC control system plumbing where a direction change from a threaded port is required. The push-to-connect mechanism allows fast, tool-free tube insertion while the extended male thread body clears panels and manifolds. Typical applications include control valve actuators, solenoid valve inlets, and pneumatic sensing lines using 5/16-inch OD polybutylene or compatible tubing.

• 1/4-inch NPT male thread for direct port connection

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style push-to-connect fitting for pneumatic and fluid tubing systems using 5/16-inch OD tubing with 1/4-inch NPT threaded ports.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician. Depressurize and isolate the system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Apply thread sealant appropriate for the service medium to the NPT threads before installation. Verify the tubing cut is clean and square before inserting into the push-to-connect collar to ensure a proper seal.
