The PARKER 6 FX-SS is a stainless steel pipe fitting in the form of a cross with four openings arranged at 90° in one plane. It is designed to join or split flow among four pipe runs and is available in equal and reducing configurations. Constructed from 316 stainless steel, it is suitable for use with applications involving air, natural gas, or oil. The fitting features FNPT connections with female gender on sides A, C, and D, and a female connection on side B, all with a nominal pipe size of 3/8 inches. Its overall length is 2.12 inches, with a maximum rated pressure of 5000 psi at standard temperature conditions. Commonly used in plumbing, HVAC, and industrial process piping, it may be selected for systems where multi-line intersections are needed, noting its limitations in high-stress applications due to junction stress concentration.
