1/4" Nickel Brass Elbow for Tube Connections
The Value Brand 22FR86 fitting connects a 1/4 inch tube to a male NPT thread at a 90 degree angle. It is built from nickel plated brass with a nitrile rubber gasket. The component is rated for temperatures from 0 to 160 degrees F. It suits plumbing or fluid transfer systems needing a compact directional change.
Straightforward Threaded Installation
The elbow installs by threading the MNPT end into a matching female port and securing the tube side with a compatible compression nut. Leaks typically appear if the thread sealant is insufficient or the tube nut is not tightened to the correct torque. The nitrile gasket requires a clean, undamaged seating surface to seal properly. Over tightening the brass body can distort threads.
For 1/4 Inch Tubing Systems Only
This fitting suits installers working with 1/4 inch outer diameter tubing and male NPT threads. It will not fit metric tubing, larger pipe sizes, or female thread ports. Buyers needing a straight coupling, a different angle, or a material such as stainless steel should look at other fittings. The Prop 65 notice applies to the brass alloy used.

Questions about this item
How do I confirm the 22FR86 elbow is sealing correctly after installation?
Pressurise the line up to the 160 °F temperature rating and check the 1/4 in tube and MNPT joints for leaks; the nitrile rubber gasket should hold without weeping.
What comes with the 22FR86 fitting and what must I supply?
The box contains the nickel-plated brass 90-degree male elbow with its nitrile gasket; you must provide 1/4 in tubing, pipe thread sealant and any mounting hardware.
Which version of the 22FR86 should I choose for a 1/4 in tube system?
The 22FR86 is a single SKU — 1/4 in tube by 1/4 in MNPT, 90-degree nickel-plated brass — so select this model when your tube and pipe threads are both 1/4 in.
