0558007075 - ESAB 90-Degree Elbow Fitting 1/4 Tube to 1/8 NPT Male

Technical Overview of the ESAB 0558007075 Elbow Fitting

The ESAB 0558007075 is a precision-engineered 90-degree elbow fitting designed to facilitate directional changes in pneumatic or gas tubing within industrial equipment. Manufactured to ESAB's strict OEM specifications, this component is essential for maintaining the integrity of internal gas and air distribution systems in plasma cutters and welding machines. The fitting features a standard 1/4-inch Outside Diameter (OD) tube connection on one end and a 1/8-inch National Pipe Taper (NPT) male thread on the other, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of standard industrial ports and tubing.

In industrial maintenance, using the correct fitting geometry is crucial for preventing kinked lines and ensuring optimal flow rates. The 90-degree angle of this elbow allows for efficient routing of tubing in confined spaces inside machine chassis, preventing stress on the tubing material. The NPT thread provides a tapered seal that tightens as it is torqued, creating a reliable, leak-resistant connection essential for pressurized air or shielding gas lines. This part is identified by the internal SKU ESB0558007075 and is a direct replacement for damaged or clogged fittings in specific ESAB equipment models.

Reliability is paramount in MRO operations. This fitting is constructed from durable materials capable of withstanding the pressure and environmental conditions typical of welding and cutting workshops. Whether used for shop air inputs or internal gas management, the ESAB 0558007075 ensures that your equipment operates at peak performance parameters by maintaining consistent pressure and flow.
