Overview
Get a metric air port plumbed correctly with this Brass Push-to-Connect (PLC) Male Swivel Elbow distributed by FleetPro Parts & Tires. It carries 1/4 in DOT nylon air brake tubing into an M12 x 1.5 threaded port โ the small metric thread that leaves you standing at a parts counter watching someone hunt through NPT bins. A control line that has been kinked to reach its port, or an elbow that has started to weep at the thread, drags the whole system down: slow recovery, a compressor that cycles constantly, and an audible leak on a brake circuit that ends in an out-of-service ticket. We stock these heavily right here in our Hanover Park, Illinois warehouse to ensure lightning-fast shipping for fleets, diesel repair shops, and owner-operators nationwide.
The Metric Thread You Cannot Find Locally: The M12 Swivel Elbow Advantage
Because the thread swivels independently of the tube port, the M12 x 1.5 male thread gets seated properly first and the elbow is then rotated to aim the tube run. That is the difference between a control line that lies relaxed and one that has been twisted a quarter turn to reach its fitting and will work-harden where it enters over the next winter. Metric ports are unforgiving of improvised adapter stacks, and every extra joint you avoid is one less place to leak.
The fitting is a DOT-approved brass air fitting that meets FMVSS 571.106 and DOT requirements for brake circuits, so it stays in the line legally. Brass also means it comes back out in five years instead of shearing off in the port the way a corroded plated-steel fitting does.
At FleetPro Parts & Tires, we know this size gets ordered by whichever number is legible on the old part. This elbow is a direct replacement for highly searched industry numbers including Volvo 994146, Freightliner 23-13255-000, Haldex APM69S4XM12 and the Parker 169PMTNS-4-M12 and 169PTCNSL-4-M12 families, and it supersedes Automann 177.V994146 and 177.2313255000.
