Smc Pneumatics MS-5ALHU-3 Mini Barb Elbow M5 X 1

Product Description

The SMC PNEUMATICS MS-5ALHU-3 is a stainless steel mini barb elbow fitting designed for small-bore pneumatic and fluid tubing connections. It features an M5 x 1 threaded port and accepts tubing with a 2 mm inside diameter and a 3.18 mm outside diameter. The 90-degree elbow geometry allows routing in tight spaces where straight fittings cannot clear adjacent components. This fitting is installed by pneumatic system technicians, instrumentation specialists, and plumbing professionals working with small-diameter tubing in compact assemblies.

This fitting is suited for light-duty pneumatic circuits, instrument air lines, and low-pressure fluid control applications where space is limited and a directional change in the tubing run is required. Its stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments where corrosion resistance is a factor, including wash-down areas, humid enclosures, and applications involving mild chemical exposure. Typical installations include panel-mounted solenoid valve manifolds, sensor ports, and compact actuator assemblies.

Key Features

• M5 x 1 threaded connection for compatibility with standard M5 ported components
• 2 mm tube inside diameter and 3.18 mm tube outside diameter for precise small-bore fitment
• Stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in demanding environments
• 90-degree elbow profile enables compact routing in confined pneumatic assemblies
• Mini barb design secures tubing mechanically without additional clamps in low-pressure service

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for pneumatic and fluid systems using M5 x 1 threaded ports and 2 mm inside diameter small-bore tubing.

Installation Notes

Shut off all air supply and depressurize the circuit before removing or installing any fittings. Technicians should verify thread engagement is complete and that tubing is fully seated on the barb before restoring system pressure. Use appropriate thread sealant compatible with the media being conveyed if the application requires a leak-free seal. Follow applicable industry standards for pneumatic system assembly and pressure ratings.
