The compression end grips tubing without soldering or cement, while the female-threaded port mates to a male pipe nipple or barb. Confirm your tubing outside diameter and the mating thread size before installation, and use appropriate thread sealant on the FIPT connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!--rel-sys-v1--\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"related-systems\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRelated Systems \u0026amp; Configurations\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComparing options?

Jaco fittings are a trusted name in water treatment plumbing because their compression design grips the tubing firmly and seals without solvent or heat, which makes them ideal for the brine, drain, and injector connections found on softeners, filters, and reverse osmosis systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhen You Reach For This Fitting\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou use a tube-to-female-thread elbow whenever a length of 3\/8 inch tubing needs to turn a corner and thread onto a male port. That situation comes up constantly in tight equipment spaces, where routing a line straight is impossible and a ninety-degree turn keeps the tubing neat and unkinked. The female thread lets it mate to a male fitting on a valve, manifold, or RO component, making it a versatile connector to have in your kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMaking a Reliable Connection\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe tube slides into the compression end and is secured by tightening the nut, which sets the ferrule around the tubing, while the threaded end seals with appropriate sealant onto its mating port. A clean, square-cut tube end and proper tightening are what give you a leak-free joint. Because both the tube size and thread size have to match your application, it is worth double-checking before installation. Water Softener Plus includes fitment guidance with your order and can help you confirm that this Jaco elbow suits your tubing and port so the connection holds under pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nelsen Corporation","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45668819763253,"sku":"J0302FE","price":16.62,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0552\/4950\/2261\/files\/jaco-txf-ell-3-8-tubex1-4-fipt-hires-r1200.jpg?v=1789604545","url":"https:\/\/checkout.watersoftenerplus.com\/products\/jaco-txf-ell-3-8-tubex1-4-fipt","provider":"Water Softener Plus","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
