Description

Overview

The 3/8 push-in elbow connects 3/8-inch outside-diameter nylon air tube to a 1/8 NPT male port while directing the line through a 45-degree angle. Its swivel base allows the outlet to be aligned during installation where nearby valves, brackets or chassis hardware limit tube routing.

Features

• 45-degree swivel male elbow configuration
• Push-in connection for 3/8-inch OD nylon tube
• 1/8-27 NPTF male threaded connection
• Reusable tube connection released by depressing the collet
• Pre-applied sealant on the male pipe thread

Compatibility and Fitment

Choose this 3/8 push-in elbow only when the tube outside diameter and threaded port both match. Confirm the tube measures 3/8 inch across the outside, not 8mm or 10mm, and check that the receiving port is 1/8 NPT rather than BSP. Allow enough clearance to align the swivel body and insert the tube fully.

Compliance and Safety

Depressurise the pneumatic circuit before installation or removal. Cut compatible nylon air brake tube square, remove scoring or deformation and push the tube fully through the collet to the internal stop. Use the swivel base for installation alignment rather than continuous rotation, then pressure-test both connections before returning the trailer to service.

Trailer Applications

This fitting suits compatible trailer air brake, air suspension and auxiliary pneumatic lines where 3/8-inch nylon tube must approach a 1/8 NPT port at a shallow angle. The 45-degree outlet can reduce tube strain where a straight connector or 90-degree elbow would create poor clearance.

Why Choose ICS Trailers

Closely related push-in elbows can use different tube diameters, pipe threads and swivel arrangements. Compare the removed fitting markings and tube outside diameter before ordering, or send clear photos of the fitting and receiving port if the connection is difficult to identify.
