Constructed from lead free brass, this fitting meets modern regulatory requirements for potable water and fuel gas applications. The 9\/16-24 NPT thread configuration provides a reliable mechanical connection with a rated maximum working pressure of 1000 psi. The self-aligning design simplifies assembly by guiding the tube into proper position before the nut is fully torqued, reducing installation errors. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians typically install this type of fitting in compression tube assemblies requiring a captive sleeve for consistent bite and seal integrity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC refrigerant piping, and fuel gas distribution systems where NPT-threaded compression connections are specified. The captive sleeve design keeps the ferrule retained on the nut during handling and assembly, which is particularly useful in tight or overhead installation environments. It is compatible with standard compression tube systems using a 9\/16-24 thread and NPT end connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSelf-aligning nut with captive sleeve for guided, repeatable tube seating\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead free brass construction meets regulatory requirements for potable water contact\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e9\/16-24 NPT thread for compatibility with standard compression fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 1000 psi maximum working pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCaptive sleeve stays retained on nut during handling and installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for compression tube assemblies using a 9\/16-24 NPT thread connection in plumbing, HVAC, and fluid handling systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or HVAC technician. Shut off and depressurize the line before disassembling any compression fitting. Hand-tighten the nut first to ensure the sleeve seats squarely before applying final torque with an appropriately sized wrench. Verify system pressure does not exceed the rated 1000 psi working pressure after installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Self-Aligning Nut with Captive Sleeve\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lead Free Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connections\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\/16-24\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1000 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANDERSON METALS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 730261-06\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ANDERSON METALS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51722782802226,"sku":"730261-06","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5c271c4cf88dd49f03c247f70052c263_f73c317f-111a-429b-af51-02d499dea45e.jpg?v=1788595833","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/anderson-metals-730261-06-self-aligning-nut-captive-sleeve-9-16-24","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
