Professional Applications

Workshop Air Systems

Ideal for routing compressed air lines in tight spaces, connecting air tools, and creating efficient pneumatic networks in automotive workshops and fabrication facilities.

Industrial Pneumatics

Perfect for production line air distribution, actuator connections, and process control systems requiring reliable 90° directional changes.

Maintenance & Retrofit

Essential component for system upgrades, repairs, and modifications where space constraints demand compact right-angle connections.

Why Choose This Fitting

Leak-Free Performance: Precision-cut RP1/4 parallel threads create secure, vibration-resistant seals when properly installed with PTFE tape or thread sealant.
Space-Efficient Design: The compact 90° elbow configuration allows you to route air lines in confined areas, behind equipment, and along walls without excessive bending or kinking of hoses.
Corrosion Resistance: Brass construction withstands moisture, condensation, and atmospheric exposure common in compressed air environments.
Universal Compatibility: RP1/4 BSP parallel thread standard ensures compatibility with UK and European pneumatic components, hoses, and quick-release couplings.
Trade Quality: Manufactured to exacting standards for professional workshops, industrial facilities, and demanding commercial applications.

Installation Guidelines

  1. Thread Preparation: Clean both female ports thoroughly. Apply 2-3 wraps of PTFE tape to male threads in a clockwise direction (when viewing thread end-on).
  2. Hand Tighten: Thread male fittings into both ports by hand until finger-tight. Ensure proper alignment for your application.
  3. Final Torque: Use appropriate spanners to tighten 1.5 to 2 full turns past hand-tight. Avoid over-tightening which can crack the fitting.
  4. Pressure Test: Pressurize system gradually and check all connections with leak detection fluid before full operation.
