Manufactured from brass, this 90-degree compression elbow from Eaton Aeroquip transitions a 0.50-inch tube OD to a 1/4-18 male NPT thread, making it a practical choice for connecting plastic, copper, or aluminum tubing in hydraulic and fluid system installations. The compression-style connection provides a reliable mechanical grip on the tubing without requiring soldering or flaring.
The Brass Compression Fitting For Plastic, Copper, & Aluminum Tubing, 0.50 Inch Tube OD To 1/4-18 Male NPT, 90 deg Elbow is cataloged under Eaton Aeroquip catalog number C1HR40 and is designed for use in systems where a direction change is required at a threaded port. The 90-degree configuration allows routing in confined spaces where straight fittings would not accommodate the tubing path.

Hey, can this elbow fitting handle hooking up some aluminum tubing in my garage?
Answer by: Customer Support on Nov 7, 2025, 9:59 AM
Absolutely. This brass compression fitting is designed for use with plastic, copper, and aluminum tubing, so it should work just fine in your garage setup.
Question by: Brenda M on Nov 22, 2025, 6:41 PM
does this fitting work on half inch OD plastic tubing, or is it only rated for copper and aluminum?
Answer by: Customer Support on Nov 23, 2025, 6:44 PM
Half-inch OD plastic tubing is fully supported by this fitting, right alongside copper and aluminum. The compression design grips the outside diameter of the tube, so the material just needs to measure out to that 0.50 inch OD to get a proper seat. All three tube types are explicitly covered under this part.
