Anderson Metals 750068-0606 Compression Connector 3/8 Npt

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS 750068-0606 is a straight compression tube connector designed to join compression tubing to a male NPT threaded port. Constructed from lead free brass, this fitting provides a secure, leak-resistant seal in plumbing, HVAC, and fluid distribution applications. It features a 3/8 inch NPT thread size with a 9/16-24 straight thread dimension and is rated for a maximum working pressure of 2000 psi. The compression x MNPT end connections allow technicians to make fast, tool-accessible joints without soldering. Licensed plumbers and HVAC mechanics are the primary installers for this type of fitting.

This connector is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, refrigeration line sets, and instrumentation tubing runs where a compression-to-male NPT transition is required. The lead free brass construction meets material standards required for potable water systems and is equally at home in fuel gas, hydraulic, and compressed air lines operating within the rated pressure range. Its compact form factor makes it practical in tight equipment cabinets and mechanical rooms.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for compression-to-male NPT applications in residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC, and instrumentation systems requiring a 3/8 inch NPT port.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified HVAC technician. Shut off system pressure and depressurize the line before disassembly or installation. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the NPT threads in accordance with local plumbing codes such as the IPC. Tighten the compression nut by hand first, then snug with a wrench — do not overtighten, as brass fittings can crack if excessive force is applied.
