LEAD-FREE BRASS FLARE MALE ELBOW - 3/8" FLARE x 1/4" MPT

Anderson Metals lead-free brass flare male elbow provides a 90-degree turn between 3/8" SAE 45-degree flare tubing and 1/4" male pipe thread (NPT). Forged from lead-free brass for potable water, gas appliance, and refrigeration service where lead-free compliance is required.

  • Connects 3/8" flare tubing to 1/4" male pipe thread (NPT)
  • 90-degree elbow body redirects tubing around tight corners and behind cabinets
  • Forged lead-free brass - meets NSF/ANSI 61 and Public Law 111-380 for potable water service
  • Rated to 1000 PSI maximum working pressure at 73 degrees F
  • Accepts copper, aluminum, and soft brass tubing properly flared to SAE 45-degree
  • Use on water, oil, air, natural gas, and LP gas service lines

Standard size for gas appliance flex connectors - clothes dryers, water heaters, wall heaters, and gas grills. The 3/8" flare provides ample flow for typical appliance demand and pairs with most CSST/copper flex flare connectors on the market.

Tip: Apply PTFE thread sealant tape or pipe dope to the MPT threads only - the flare seal is metal-to-metal and must stay clean. Use a single-pass flaring tool to form a clean SAE 45-degree flare on the tubing end; double-flare or short flares will leak. Hand-thread the flare nut onto the fitting, then snug with a backup wrench on the elbow body to avoid twisting the tubing.
