Anderson Metals 750066-0604 Compression Tube Connector

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS 750066-0604 is a straight compression tube connector designed to join a compression-end tube to a female NPT (FNPT) port in fluid or gas distribution systems. Constructed from lead free brass, this fitting meets modern potable water and plumbing code requirements. It carries a maximum working pressure of 2000 psi, making it suitable for a wide range of service pressures encountered in plumbing, HVAC hydronic lines, and light industrial piping. The 1/4 inch NPT thread size and 9/16-24 straight thread specification allow straightforward integration into standard port configurations. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians are the primary installers of this type of fitting.

This compression connector is appropriate for residential and light commercial plumbing, hydronic heating systems, refrigeration copper tubing connections, and instrumentation tubing runs where a reliable compression-to-FNPT transition is required. The straight body configuration keeps the connection in line, reducing potential stress on adjacent tubing. It is suited to applications where a leak-free, tool-assisted compression seal is preferred over soldered or flared connections.

Key Features

• Lead free brass construction meets current potable water and plumbing code standards
• Rated to 2000 psi maximum working pressure for demanding service environments
• Compression x FNPT end connections for tube-to-threaded-port transitions
• 1/4 inch NPT thread size with 9/16-24 straight thread for precise fit
• Compact straight-body design minimizes line stress and saves space in tight installations

Compatibility

Designed as a standard compression-to-FNPT connector for use in plumbing, HVAC hydronic, and instrumentation tubing systems that require a 1/4 inch NPT female port connection with a compression tube inlet.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the IPC. Shut off and depressurize the supply line completely before disassembly or fitting installation. Use an appropriately sized wrench on the hex body to tighten; do not over-torque brass fittings, as this can crack the body or distort the compression ferrule. Ensure the tube end is cut cleanly and squarely and is fully seated before tightening the compression nut.
