John Guest - Polypropylene Fixed Elbow Quick Connect Fitting - White
Polypropylene Fixed Elbow Quick Connect Fitting
The John Guest fixed elbow quick connect fitting uses a grip-and-seal collet system that installs in seconds without tools. Manufactured from acetal copolymer with food-grade nitrile O-rings, it handles potable water, air, CO2, and other inert gases with superior heat and strength performance compared to standard polypropylene.
Technical Details
| Material | Acetal copolymer body, food-grade nitrile O-ring |
| Connection Type | National Pipe Thread (NPT) |
| Configuration | Fixed elbow, push-to-connect |
| Installation | Push fitting onto pipe, turn onto thread |
| Removal | Unlock nut, push collet toward body, pull pipe |
| Applications | Potable water, air, CO2, inert gases, vacuum |
| Origin | Designed and manufactured in the UK |
Understanding NPT Thread Measurements
National Pipe Thread sizes do not correspond to ruler measurements. A 1/4" NPT fitting actually measures approximately 0.540" in outer diameter when measured against a ruler. Use this reference: 1/8" NPT = 0.405" actual, 1/4" NPT = 0.540" actual, 3/8" NPT = 0.675" actual, 1/2" NPT = 0.840" actual. This is standard across the industry and prevents common sizing errors during installation.
Ideal Applications
This John Guest fixed elbow fitting works with reverse osmosis systems, water filtration setups, beverage dispensing equipment, pneumatic lines, and CO2 distribution systems. The acetal construction and food-grade seals make it suitable for tap connections, under-sink installations, refrigerator lines, and any application requiring a reliable 90-degree turn in tight spaces. Compatible with John Guest tubing and fittings throughout your system.
