Anderson Metals 750066-0302 Compression Tube Connector

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS 750066-0302 is a straight compression tube connector designed to join a compression-end tube to a female NPT port. Constructed from lead free brass, this fitting provides a reliable, leak-resistant connection in plumbing, instrumentation, and fluid-handling systems. The compression end accepts a tube and forms a mechanical seal without soldering, while the FNPT end threads into a standard 1/8 inch NPT female port. Rated to 400 psi maximum working pressure, this connector suits applications where a durable, code-compliant fitting is required. It is typically installed by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and instrumentation mechanics.

This compression-to-FNPT connector is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC refrigerant and water lines, compressed air systems, and instrumentation tubing connections where a solderless mechanical fitting is preferred. The NPT thread standard makes it compatible with standard pipe fittings commonly found throughout these systems. The lead free brass construction meets requirements for potable water service where lead-free fittings are mandated by code.

Key Features

• Lead free brass construction meets lead-free code requirements for potable water systems
• Compression x FNPT end connections allow solderless installation to a 1/8 inch NPT female port
• 400 psi maximum working pressure rating suitable for a range of fluid and pneumatic applications
• 1/8 inch NPT thread size with straight 3/8-24 thread standard
• Compact, single-piece design with no additional components required for connection

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for systems using standard 1/8 inch NPT female ports with compression tube connections.

Installation Notes

Shut off and depressurize the system before removing or installing any compression fitting. A licensed plumber or qualified technician should perform the installation in accordance with local plumbing codes and IPC requirements. Hand-tighten the FNPT end first, then use a wrench to snug the connection without overtightening, which can crack the fitting body. Inspect the compression ferrule and nut for proper seating before returning the system to pressure.
