The Tefen Female Elbow Connector – ¼" BSPT to 8 mm – is designed to streamline poultry hydration setups where angled connections are required. It features a tight 90° bend and reliable barb block grip, making it perfect for close-quarters installations like chicken tractors, brooders, or wall-mounted drinkers.
Compatible with Our Mounting System
This fitting is widely used with the Dine-A-Chook Cage/Surface Mount kit to position Lubing Cups or Nipples exactly where needed. The ¼" BSPT female thread connects directly to our male Tefen connectors, allowing a flexible, modular setup.
Gravity and Pressure-Fed System Advice
For best performance, maintain a maximum water head height of 35 cm (13.8") above the drinker point. Exceeding this may result in overpressure and leakage, especially in gravity-fed Lubing Cup systems.
System Tips
- Use with our premium 8 mm tubing for secure flow
- Mount Lubing Cups at a height accessible to your flock
