Anderson Metals 730060-08 Compression Tube Sleeve Brass

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS 730060-08 is a compression tube sleeve designed for use in compression-style tube fittings. This sleeve seats between the compression nut and the fitting body, creating a leak-resistant mechanical seal when the nut is tightened. Constructed from lead free brass, it meets modern potable water and plumbing code requirements. Rated to a maximum working pressure of 2000 psi, the 730060-08 is suited for demanding hydraulic, refrigeration, and plumbing applications where a reliable, code-compliant compression connection is required. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians are the primary installers of this component.

This compression sleeve is appropriate for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC refrigerant piping, and hydraulic line assemblies where compression-style fittings are specified. It is used wherever a tube must be joined to a compression fitting body and a secure, pressure-rated seal is needed without soldering or threading. The sleeve works in conjunction with a matching compression nut and fitting body to complete the connection.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard compression tube sleeve for use with compatible compression fitting bodies and nuts in plumbing, HVAC, and hydraulic tube assemblies. Verify tube outer diameter and fitting series compatibility before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or HVAC technician. Shut off water or system pressure and relieve line pressure completely before disassembling or installing compression fittings. Seat the sleeve squarely over the tube end before threading the compression nut to avoid cross-threading or sleeve deformation. Do not over-tighten the compression nut, as this can distort the sleeve and compromise the seal.
