Anderson Metals 730060-03 Compression Tube Sleeve

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS 730060-03 is a compression tube sleeve fitting machined from lead free brass. It serves as the ferrule component in a compression-style tube joint, biting into the tubing wall when the fitting nut is tightened to create a leak-resistant mechanical seal without solder or thread sealant. Rated to a maximum working pressure of 400 psi, this sleeve is suited for water supply, plumbing distribution, and fluid-handling lines where a reliable, code-compliant compression connection is required. Plumbers and pipefitters install this part as a standard consumable whenever assembling or re-making compression joints.

This sleeve is used in residential and light commercial plumbing applications wherever compression fittings are employed on copper or compatible soft-metal tubing. Typical install scenarios include under-sink supply connections, fixture shut-off valve hookups, and branch distribution lines. The lead free brass construction satisfies potable water contact requirements under applicable plumbing codes. Sold in a package quantity of five, making it practical to keep spares on the service vehicle for repeat connection work.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or consumable sleeve for standard compression tube fittings used in residential and light commercial plumbing systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters. Shut off and depressurize the supply line before disassembling any existing compression joint. Do not reuse a previously compressed sleeve, as the ferrule deforms during initial assembly and will not seal reliably a second time. Compression fitting work on potable water systems must comply with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC requirements.
