Anderson Metals Corp 700060-02 Brass Compression Sleeve

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS CORP 700060-02 is a brass compression sleeve sized for 1/8-inch tubing connections. Compression sleeves, also called ferrules, create a leak-tight mechanical seal when a compression fitting is tightened against the sleeve and the tubing. This part is manufactured as a lead-free compliant product meeting the requirements of Public Law 111-380, making it suitable for potable water applications where lead-free materials are required by code. Plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting component in residential and light commercial water supply systems.

This compression sleeve is used wherever 1/8-inch compression fittings are employed, including instrument tubing connections, small-diameter water supply lines, and pneumatic or hydraulic control tubing. It is sold in bulk packaging with a package quantity of 10 sleeves per unit, making it practical for service technicians who need spares on hand or for contractors completing multiple connections in a single job.

Installation Notes

Compression sleeves are installed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters as part of a compression fitting assembly. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before disassembling or assembling any compression connection. Ensure the tubing end is cut cleanly and deburred before seating the sleeve to avoid leaks. Follow all applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines when connecting to potable water systems.
