HydroLogic Stealth Membrane Elbow. 1/8 in NPT x 1/4 in QC

What a Stealth Membrane Elbow Connects The membrane housing to the tubing. One end is 1/8 in male NPT, the other a 1/4 in quick connect. The ninety degree turn lets the line leave the housing without a kink. It comes in black and in white. The fitting is the same either way. Working With a 1/4 in Quick Connect on an RO Line The tube pushes in and locks. Releasing it is the part people fight: press the collet ring in toward the fitting while pulling the tube out, rather than pulling harder. Two wraps of thread tape on the NPT end is plenty, and do not crank it into plastic. These are the parts that fail quietly on an older system. A fitting weeping at the housing reads like a membrane problem for weeks before anyone finds the puddle. A spare or two on the shelf is worth keeping. Key Features 1/8 in male NPT thread: The housing end, sized for Stealth RO membrane housings. 1/4 in quick connect: Push the tube in to lock. Press the collet in to release it. Ninety degree turn: The line leaves the housing without a kink in the tubing. Black or white: Both colours are available. The fitting itself is unchanged. A quiet failure point: A weeping housing fitting reads like a membrane fault for weeks. Two wraps of tape: Thread tape on the NPT end, and do not crank it into plastic.
