PARKER Compression Fitting Elbow: 3/8 in OD x 3/8 in Pipe Fitting Size, Compression x MNPT

A PARKER compression fitting elbow connects two tubes or a tube to a pipe at a 90-degree angle, creating a leak-tight seal in pneumatic, hydraulic, and instrumentation systems. It is commonly used in industrial fluid power, process control, and HVAC applications where reliable, vibration-resistant connections are required.

The PARKER 179C-6-6 is a standard sleeve brass compression fitting elbow with a 3/8 in OD tube size and 3/8 in pipe fitting size, configured as Compression x MNPT. It is sold in a 10-pack. This fitting is designed for use with copper, brass, or plastic tubing in low- to medium-pressure systems.

To install a PARKER compression fitting elbow, slide the nut and ferrule onto the tube, insert the tube fully into the fitting body, then tighten the nut by hand followed by a wrench turn per manufacturer specifications. Avoid over-tightening to prevent tube deformation. Always use a tube cutter for a clean, square cut before assembly.
