Overview

Get the metric port on a modern chassis plumbed correctly with this DOT Push-Lock Swivel 90° Male Elbow distributed by FleetPro Parts & Tires. It threads into an M12 x 1.5 O-ring port and accepts 3/8 in DOT nylon tubing on the push-to-connect side, so the metric fitting the truck was built with is matched exactly instead of being adapted into with a stack of parts. Forcing an imperial fitting into a metric O-ring boss is how air leaks start: the compressor cycles nonstop, the low-air buzzer nags the driver, and a leaking brake circuit is an instant out-of-service at the scale. 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.

Metric Done Right: The M12 x 1.5 Swivel Elbow Advantage

The O-ring seal on the M12 x 1.5 thread does the sealing on the face rather than on the taper, so the joint holds without being cranked down, and the swivel lets you rotate the elbow to the tube run after the thread is seated. That is the whole point of the design: seal first, aim second. On the tube side, the composite body with brass collet locks 3/8 in nylon tubing the moment it is pushed home — no flaring, no compression sleeve to tighten, no special tooling on the shoulder — while the composite housing shrugs off the road salt, spray and moisture that pit all-metal fittings.

It is DOT-approved for heavy-duty air brake systems and meets FMVSS 571.106, which is exactly what a roadside inspection checks. At FleetPro Parts & Tires, we know a brake job is only right when every joint holds. This 90° swivel male elbow is a direct replacement for Parker 369PTCR-6-MA12, listed by some suppliers without the hyphens as 369PTCR6MA12.

Key features
  • Matches the Metric Port: Threads straight into an M12 x 1.5 O-ring boss, so the factory metric port is not adapted into with a stack of parts.
  • O-Ring Face Seal: The O-ring seals without the joint having to be cranked down the way a tapered thread does.
  • Swivel After Sealing: Seat the thread first, then rotate the 90° elbow so the tube run heads where the chassis has room.
  • Push-Lock 3/8 in Tube End: The brass collet locks DOT nylon tubing the moment it is pushed home — no flaring, no compression sleeve, no special tooling.
  • DOT and FMVSS 571.106: Approved for heavy-duty air brake systems, so it stands up to a roadside inspection.
