Anderson Metals Corp 710060-10 Brass Compression Sleeve

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS CORP 710060-10 is a lead-free brass compression sleeve sized for 5/8-inch tubing. Compression sleeves, also called ferrules, create a leak-tight mechanical seal when compressed between a compression nut and fitting body. This sleeve is designed for use in potable water and plumbing systems where lead-free compliance is required. Each package contains 2 sleeves. The part meets the requirements of Public Law 111-380, the federal standard governing lead content in plumbing products used in drinking water systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install these as part of compression-style tube connections in residential and light commercial applications.

Compression sleeves of this type are used wherever copper or compatible tubing is joined using compression fittings. Common applications include supply line connections at fixtures, shutoff valves, and water supply branch connections. The 5/8-inch size is appropriate for standard tubing of that outside diameter. This product ships in a carded 2-pack format, making it practical for single-connection service calls or small repair jobs.

Installation Notes

Compression sleeves are installed by licensed plumbers working under IPC or locally adopted plumbing codes. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before disassembling any compression connection. The sleeve seats over the tubing and is compressed by tightening the compression nut — do not over-tighten, as brass sleeves can crack or deform. Verify tubing end is cut square and deburred before assembly.
