Brass Solar Fitting
The Eaton Weatherhead 1869 is a brass male elbow designed for solar piping installations. It connects a 3/8 inch tube to a 3/8-18 thread port in fluid transfer systems. This new accessory suits installers building or maintaining renewable energy arrays.
3/8-18 Thread Compatibility
The single specification that determines fit is the 3/8-18 male thread mating with the female port. Verify the receiving component uses this exact thread standard before purchase. The 1869 model number confirms the elbow geometry for directional routing.
No Additional Components Included
The product ships as a single brass fitting without sealant, tubing or tools. Installers must supply compatible 3/8 inch tubing and thread sealant separately. No software or mounting hardware accompanies this mechanical accessory.

Questions about this item
What does the 1869 model number indicate about this fitting?
The 1869 identifies this Eaton Weatherhead male elbow as a brass accessory designed for 3/8-18 thread and 3/8 inch tube size.
How does the 3/8-18 thread specification affect installation?
The 3/8-18 NPT thread mates with standard female ports, creating a tapered seal that tightens as you thread it in.
What clearance is needed for the 3/8 inch tube connection?
The elbow accepts 3/8 inch tubing, so allow enough radius for the tube to enter the compression nut without sharp bends.
