"Everyone was very nice that I spoke to from the company, but unfortunately The wrench does not fit"
"I called up needing four 90 degree connectors for the filters I bought prior. The gentleman knew exactly what I needed and gave me the part number. I ordered it and it was here in a couple of days. Great customer service! Thank you!"
Q:
What sizes does the John Guest CI480822W connect?
A:
It is a fixed 90-degree elbow with a 1/4-inch quick-connect socket for OD tubing and a 1/4-inch male NPTF thread.
Q:
How is it different from CI220808W?
A:
CI480822W threads into a female NPT port. CI220808W has a smooth stem that pushes into another quick-connect fitting.
Q:
Can it replace a straight connector?
A:
Yes when a 90-degree turn is helpful and there is enough clearance to rotate the threaded elbow during installation. Confirm the direction will work once the thread is sealed.
Q:
How should the male thread be sealed?
A:
Use approved thread sealant for the mating female NPT port and potable-water application. Keep excess material away from the water path.
Q:
How is tubing installed?
A:
Cut 1/4-inch OD tubing square, push it fully through the collet to the tube stop, and pull back gently to verify engagement.
Q:
What should I check after installation?
A:
Restore pressure slowly and inspect both the threaded joint and push-fit seal. Make sure the tube is not kinked or applying side load to the elbow.
