Festo NPQH-L-G38-Q10-P10 578288 Push-in L-Fitting 90° G3/8 to 10mm

Festo NPQH-L-G38-Q10-P10 is a 90° push‑in L‑fitting that connects a male G3/8 thread (BSPP) to 10 mm OD pneumatic tubing. The fitting can be swivelled 360° after the threaded connection is tightened, allowing flexible tube routing in confined spaces. The compact, solid‑metal brass body is chemically nickel‑plated for high corrosion resistance in demanding industrial environments. This fitting is suitable for compressed air, vacuum, and water (by manufacturer declaration) within a wide temperature range.

Applications:

• Compressed air distribution in industrial automation and machine building

• Pneumatic tubing connections for valves, cylinders and actuators

• High‑temperature applications (e.g., oven sealing systems) up to 150 °C

• Applications requiring high corrosion resistance (CRC 3), e.g., welding spatter environments
