Technical Specifications

Key Features

• Male Swivel Elbow configuration: Turns the tubing connection through 90 degrees at a compatible female-threaded port.
• Specified connection: 1/4 Tube to 10-32UNF (M5) Thread. Match the tubing outside diameter and the applicable thread or stem style.
• Grade 316 stainless steel body for improved resistance to many wet, cleaned or corrosive machinery environments.
• FKM sealing elements at the tube interface; chemical, pressure and temperature compatibility must be confirmed.
• Push-to-connect assembly reduces the need for separate tube nuts or compression ferrules.

Typical Applications

• Compressed-air distribution on food and beverage packaging or filling equipment
• Pneumatic actuators, valves and control circuits near frequently cleaned production equipment
• External air or vacuum tubing on pharmaceutical manufacturing machinery, subject to equipment specifications
• Compact 90-degree tube routing at machine corners or valve ports

How the Male Swivel Elbow Works

A male swivel elbow is useful for tight valve manifolds or compact control panels where tubing should exit to the side. Confirm orientation, thread type and clearance before final assembly. The FOH H1169X4AS-SS is specified with 1/4 Tube to 10-32UNF (M5) Thread.

Selection Guidance for Washdown and Pharmaceutical Equipment

These fittings are described for pneumatic or vacuum circuits on processing machinery, not as certified sanitary product-contact fittings. A direct food- or pharmaceutical-contact application requires separate confirmation of hygienic design, material compliance and the relevant approvals. For chemical washdown, assess the 316 metal body and FKM seal individually; in particular, do not assume hot caustic cleaners or chlorinated disinfectants are compatible.
