Anderson Metals 750061-14 Compression Tube Nut Npt

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS 750061-14 is a lead-free brass compression tube nut designed for use in pressurized fluid systems. It features a 1-1/8-18 straight thread with NPT end connection, making it suitable for joining tubing in plumbing, HVAC, and general fluid-handling assemblies. Rated to a maximum working pressure of 750 psi, this nut provides a reliable mechanical connection point in compression fittings. The lead-free brass construction meets regulatory requirements for potable water applications and delivers corrosion resistance in wet service environments. Plumbers and HVAC technicians install this fitting as part of compression-style tube assemblies.

This compression tube nut is used in residential and light commercial plumbing and HVAC systems where NPT-threaded compression connections are required. It is suited for installations involving copper or compatible tubing where a secure, leak-resistant joint is needed. The 1-1/8-18 thread size positions this nut for medium-diameter tubing runs in both new construction and retrofit service work.

Key Features

• Lead-free brass construction meets potable water compliance requirements
• 1-1/8-18 straight thread with NPT end connection
• Rated to 750 psi maximum working pressure
• Compact form factor suited for tight installation spaces
• Single-piece nut for straightforward compression assembly

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for compression tube assemblies using 1-1/8-18 NPT-threaded connections in plumbing and HVAC applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or HVAC technician. Shut off system pressure and drain the line before disassembling or installing compression fittings. Use appropriate tubing cutters and deburring tools to ensure a clean, square tube end before seating the nut. Follow applicable IPC and local plumbing code requirements for fitting selection and joint inspection.
