Description

Overview

The 10mm x 3/8 NPT swivel male elbow connects 10mm metric nylon tube to a female 3/8 NPT port and turns the air line through 90 degrees. Because the threaded base swivels beneath the elbow, the installer can tighten the fitting and then aim the tube away from nearby valves, tanks or brackets.

Features

• Push-in collet accepts 10mm outside-diameter air brake tube.
• Swivel 90-degree body supports close routing without forcing a tight tube bend.
• Brass construction suits pneumatic connections exposed to regular workshop servicing.
• Pre-applied thread sealant covers the 3/8 NPT male connection.

Specifications and Materials

This fitting combines a 10mm push-to-connect tube end with a 3/8 NPT male pipe thread. The equivalent fitting design uses CA360 and CA377 brass, an NBR tube seal and Loctite 516 thread sealant. It carries a maximum working pressure of 150 PSI and a temperature range from -40°C to 104°C.

Part number: 88-M005S-10N06.

Manufacturer technical specifications

Compatibility and Fitment

Confirm the tube measures 10mm across its outside diameter and the receiving port uses a 3/8 NPT female thread. However, do not confuse this connection with 3/8 BSPT, because the thread forms differ even though the nominal size looks similar. Also allow enough room for the 10mm x 3/8 NPT swivel male elbow to rotate into its final direction.

Compliance and Safety

Depressurise the circuit before installation or removal. Cut the tube square, remove burrs and inspect its outer surface for scoring near the sealing area. Then push the tube fully into the collet and leak-test the connection after restoring air pressure. Avoid adding excess sealant that could enter the air passage.

Trailer Applications

Workshops fit this elbow where a 10mm trailer air line must leave a 3/8 NPT port at a right angle. For example, it suits connections around air brake valves, suspension controls, reservoirs and compact pneumatic manifolds where a straight fitting would crowd the tube route.
