Value Collection 10774 Compression Male Elbow 1/4in Od

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 10774 is a compression tube male elbow fitting designed to connect 1/4-inch outside diameter tubing to a male NPT threaded port at a 90-degree angle. It features a 7/16-24 thread size and ends configured as Compression x MNPT, making it a standard choice for routing tubing in tight spaces where a directional change is required. This fitting is commonly installed by plumbers, HVAC technicians, and refrigeration service technicians working on fluid or gas distribution systems that require a reliable, leak-resistant compression connection on one end and a threaded male port on the other.

This male elbow fitting is suited for use in residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC, and pneumatic tubing applications where 1/4-inch OD tubing must transition to a male NPT threaded fitting. The compression end creates a secure seal without soldering or special tooling, while the MNPT end threads directly into a female-threaded port or valve body. Typical installation scenarios include instrument lines, refrigerant-side accessories, and control tubing runs requiring a 90-degree directional change. Sold in a package quantity of 5.

Key Features

• 7/16-24 thread size with Compression x MNPT end configuration
• Accepts 1/4-inch outside diameter tubing on the compression end
• 90-degree elbow orientation for routing tubing in confined or angled spaces
• No soldering required on the compression end — tool-assisted hand tightening typical
• Sold in a package of 5 fittings per order

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression tube male elbow for use with 1/4-inch OD tubing systems terminating at a male NPT threaded port, consistent with UNSPSC code 27121700 fluid transfer fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or HVAC technician. Shut off the fluid or gas supply and relieve system pressure before disassembling or installing compression fittings. Insert the tubing fully into the compression end and tighten the compression nut to manufacturer-standard practice — do not overtighten, as this can deform the ferrule and compromise the seal. Verify thread engagement on the MNPT end and use appropriate thread sealant or tape as required by local codes.
