{"product_id":"discontinued-see-extended-desc-3","title":"Discontinued-See Extended Desc.","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis Fleck elbow fitting, configured as 1\/4-inch NPT by 3\/8-inch tube, is a discontinued individual part for the Fleck 1650 control valve from Pentair. It remains available within select service kits, which allows you to complete repairs that depend on this specific connection fitting. Routing the right connection cleanly around the valve body is essential to a leak-free system, and this elbow is designed to make that turn neatly even in tight spaces around the control head.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eElbow fittings like this one direct brine, drain, or control lines around the valve body at a right angle, providing a clean, leak-resistant transition between threaded ports and flexible or rigid tubing. The 1\/4-inch NPT thread mates with the valve port while the 3\/8-inch tube side connects to your line, allowing a secure, sealed turn without kinking the tubing. A cracked, stripped, or worn fitting can cause leaks or restrict flow during the regeneration cycle, so a proper, correctly sized replacement keeps the system tight and functioning exactly as designed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned for the Fleck 1650 control valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConfiguration: 1\/4-inch NPT to 3\/8-inch tube elbow fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscontinued as a standalone part\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in kits FL60080-00, FL60480-03, and FL60481-22\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Fleck\/Pentair component\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eListed weight approximately 0.07 lbs per each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGetting the Correct Fitting\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo replace this elbow on a 1650 valve, select one of the listed kits, which include the fitting alongside related parts for a thorough and reliable repair. Before ordering, confirm both your valve model and your tubing size so the connection matches your existing plumbing for a secure, leak-free assembly that will not loosen over time. Applying the appropriate thread sealant on the NPT side, seating the tube fully into the fitting, and avoiding over-tightening will all help ensure a long-lasting, drip-free connection that supports proper brine and drain flow throughout the regeneration cycle. Verifying that the elbow seats cleanly and the tubing is fully inserted before pressurizing the line is a small step that prevents the slow drips and flow restrictions that a hastily installed fitting can otherwise cause during regeneration. A clean, secure fitting is one of those small touches that distinguishes a professional installation from one that develops nuisance leaks within the first season of use.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pentair","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45668800692277,"sku":"FL10328","price":83.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0552\/4950\/2261\/files\/fl10328.jpg?v=1782533672","url":"https:\/\/watersoftenerplus.com\/en-eu\/products\/discontinued-see-extended-desc-3","provider":"Water Softener Plus","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
