Description

Overview

The M22 x 12mm elbow fitting connects a 12mm outside-diameter nylon air line to an M22 x 1.5 male pneumatic port while turning the line through 90 degrees. This BPW-style connection suits confined trailer installations where a straight fitting would place an excessive bend in the tube or interfere with nearby hardware.

The elbow form allows the nylon line to leave the threaded port at a right angle. Its two selection-critical details are the M22 x 1.5 thread and the 12mm tube outside diameter.

Features

• 90-degree male stud elbow configuration
• M22 x 1.5 male threaded connection
• Tube connection sized for 12mm nylon air line
• Spanner flats support controlled installation and removal

Compatibility and Fitment

Compare the M22 x 12mm elbow fitting with the removed part’s thread diameter, 1.5mm pitch, tube size and elbow orientation. Do not select it from the 12mm tube size alone, because similar fittings may use M16, a different M22 sealing arrangement or another tube connection. Confirm adequate clearance for the elbow body and spanner during tightening.

Compliance and Safety

Depressurise the pneumatic system before disturbing the connection. Cut the nylon tube square and inspect it for scoring, flattening, cracking or heat damage near the fitting. Avoid forcing mismatched threads, and check the completed joint for leakage and secure tube retention after restoring pressure.

Trailer Applications

This connection is used in compatible BPW trailer air brake plumbing, air suspension circuits and pneumatic control lines where 12mm nylon tube must turn immediately after an M22 x 1.5 port.
