Stainless Steel Positionable Elbow – 3/8" Tube x 1/4" BSPP, 90° Male (SPME 6-4G)
The SPME 6-4G is a stainless steel positionable 90-degree male elbow built for flexible routing of 3/8" tubing into 1/4" British Standard Parallel Pipe (BSPP) threaded ports. This compression fitting features a rotatable body that allows for precise alignment during installation without twisting the tubing—ideal for confined skids, control panels, or valve blocks.
Machined from 316 stainless steel, the SPME 6-4G delivers strong mechanical integrity, chemical resistance, and reliable sealing in both industrial and hygienic fluid systems. The adjustable elbow design lets installers orient the compression side after thread engagement, saving time and avoiding tubing stress.
This union-style elbow is frequently used in OEM builds, European-spec process systems, and applications requiring BSPP port compatibility in combination with clean, repeatable tube connections.
Key Benefits
- Combines 3/8" compression connection with 1/4" BSPP male thread
- 90-degree positionable design allows flexible routing in tight spaces
- 316 stainless steel construction ensures long-term corrosion resistance
- BSPP threads provide straight-thread sealing with bonded washer or O-ring (not included)
- Ideal for system retrofits, OEM panel builds, or fluid skids with fixed thread orientation
- Reusable compression side supports service and system upgrades
Typical Applications
- European-standard process systems
- Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) instrument panels
- Valve block or gauge routing
- Clean-in-Place (CIP) line direction changes
- Process skids requiring flexible alignment without re-bending tubing
Looking for a positionable 90-degree BSPP-compatible elbow in 316 stainless steel? The SPME 6-4G gives you alignment flexibility and reliable sealing—at a price lower than traditional branded equivalents.
