The fitting uses a flare x MNPT end configuration, making it a standard choice for connecting copper or compatible tubing runs to threaded fittings, valves, or equipment ports. Rated for up to 1000 psi working pressure in both static and dynamic service, this connector suits demanding fluid and gas distribution systems. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians install this type of fitting as part of refrigerant, fuel gas, or potable water piping assemblies where lead-free materials are required by code.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis connector is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC, and gas distribution applications where a 45-degree flare connection transitions to a male NPT thread. It is commonly used in fuel gas lines, refrigerant tubing connections, and water supply systems requiring lead-free brass fittings. The NPT thread complies with standard pipe thread specifications widely used across North American plumbing and mechanical systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free brass construction meets regulatory requirements for potable water and gas service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e45-degree flare seat provides a reliable, leak-resistant mechanical seal on 1\/4-inch OD tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlare x MNPT end configuration allows direct connection between flared tubing and NPT-threaded ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1000 psi maximum working pressure rated for both static and dynamic service conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNPT thread standard ensures compatibility with common North American pipe fittings and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for systems using 1\/4-inch OD flared tubing with 3\/8-inch male NPT threaded connections in plumbing, HVAC, or gas distribution assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local codes, the International Plumbing Code, or the International Fuel Gas Code. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any flare fitting. Use a properly sized flaring tool to prepare the tubing end to a consistent 45-degree seat before tightening the fitting. Do not overtighten, as over-torquing brass flare fittings can damage the seat and cause leaks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lead-Free Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flare x MNPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlare Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 45 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMax Working Pressure (Static)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1000 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMax Working Pressure (Dynamic)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1000 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: 754048-0406\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ANDERSON METALS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51691546476850,"sku":"754048-0406","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4df27dcb4a8544ea3731c535fd28c9d6_b2db6566-e5de-4564-88a4-2a5ad4ef5d33.jpg?v=1788286846","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/anderson-metals-754048-0406-brass-flare-connector-1-4-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
