Description
Brass compression-style 90° elbow that connects 1/2 in. OD SAE J844 nylon air-brake tubing to a 1/2 in. male NPTF port through a right-angle bend. The Midland Industries 38105 uses a compression nut and sleeve (no flaring) to grip the tubing for a leak-tight, vibration-resistant seal — SAE 100202BA fitting, suitable for DOT air-brake plumbing on tractors, trailers, and vocational trucks. Replaces 016988 and the 1469-8D / 469-88 industry callouts.
