Description
Overview
The 1/2 push-in elbow connects 1/2-inch OD nylon air brake tube to a 3/8 NPT male port and changes the line direction by 45 degrees. Its swivel base lets the outlet be aligned during installation, helping the larger tube clear nearby valves, brackets and chassis hardware.
Features
- Push-in collet for 1/2-inch OD nylon tube
- 3/8-18 NPTF male tapered pipe thread
- 45-degree swivel male elbow configuration
- Reusable brass body with pre-applied thread sealant

Compatibility and Fitment
Choose this 1/2 push-in elbow only when both connections match. Confirm the tube is imperial 1/2 inch rather than 12mm, then check that the port uses 3/8 NPT rather than BSP or metric thread. Leave enough clearance to insert the tube straight into the collet.
