It transitions a 1\/2-inch flare fitting to a 3\/8-inch female pipe thread (FPT) connection, allowing technicians to join flared copper tubing to threaded pipe fittings at a single point. The connector is manufactured from brass and is lead-free compliant, meeting the requirements of Public Law 111-380. It is sold in a package of 10 units, making it a practical bulk supply for service trucks and shop inventory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis connector is used wherever a flare-to-FPT transition is required, including gas appliance connections, refrigerant line fittings, and potable water supply lines. The 1\/2-inch flare inlet is compatible with standard 1\/2-inch flare tubing, and the 3\/8-inch FPT outlet connects to standard threaded pipe fittings. It is appropriate for residential service work and light commercial installations where lead-free materials are required by code. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and gas fitters are the typical installers of this fitting type.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2-inch flare inlet to 3\/8-inch female pipe thread outlet transition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrass construction for corrosion resistance and durability in gas and fluid service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLead-free compliant per Public Law 111-380, suitable for potable water applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackaged in quantities of 10 for shop and service truck stocking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarded packaging for easy identification and storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard-service fitting for plumbing, HVAC, and gas distribution systems requiring a 1\/2-inch flare to 3\/8-inch female pipe thread transition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber, HVAC technician, or gas fitter in accordance with applicable local codes, the International Plumbing Code (IPC), or the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC). Shut off the gas or water supply and depressurize the line before making or breaking any fitting connection. Apply appropriate thread sealant or tape to the female pipe thread side only — never apply sealant to the flare seating surface. Tighten the flare nut to a snug fit using two wrenches to avoid twisting the tubing; do not overtighten.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch Flare\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch Female Pipe Thread (FPT)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLead-Free Compliance\u003c\/strong\u003e: Public Law 111-380\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 units\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.1 pounds (per package)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: EA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANDERSON METALS CORP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 714046-0806\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ANDERSON METALS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51558390694194,"sku":"714046-0806","price":42.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/422625c269f13687fa441837ab588fc0_76b5f439-8e91-4a5f-97b1-1fe3f940aef1.jpg?v=1786410958","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/anderson-metals-corp-714046-0806-brass-flare-connector","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
