Frequently Asked Questions
What is a flareless tube fitting?
A flareless fitting uses a ferrule that bites into the tube to create a seal, eliminating the need to flare the tube end. This provides a reliable, vibration-resistant connection.
What is the thread type PT1/4?
PT stands for Pipe Thread (tapered), commonly used in hydraulic and pneumatic systems. PT1/4 has a nominal diameter of 1/4 inch with a taper that ensures a tight seal.
Can this fitting be used for seawater?
Brass offers good corrosion resistance, but for prolonged seawater exposure, consider using bronze or stainless steel fittings. This brass elbow is suitable for fresh water, fuel, oil, and air systems.
What tools are needed for installation?
Installation typically requires a wrench to tighten the nut. No special flaring tool is needed due to the flareless design.
