Anderson Metals Corp 754044-10 Brass Flare Tee 5/8 in

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS CORP 754044-10 is a 5/8-inch brass flare tee fitting used to create a three-way branch connection in flare-type tubing systems. Constructed from lead-free brass, it meets the requirements of Public Law 111-380, making it compliant for potable water and refrigerant line applications where lead-free materials are mandated. This fitting is a standard choice for licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians working with copper or soft-alloy tubing that requires a reliable, leak-resistant flare connection at a tee junction.

This flare tee is suited for residential and light commercial installations where a branch takeoff is needed in a flare-piped system. Typical applications include refrigerant distribution lines, LP and natural gas supply runs, and potable water systems requiring lead-free compliance. It is sold in bulk packs of 5 units, making it practical for service contractors who routinely stock flare fittings on their trucks or in shop inventory.

Key Features

• 5/8-inch flare connection on all three ports for consistent tubing fit
• Lead-free brass construction compliant with Public Law 111-380
• Tee configuration allows a branch takeoff from a single run of tubing
• Bulk pack of 5 units per package reduces per-unit cost for contractors
• Compatible with standard flare tooling — no special equipment required beyond a calibrated flare tool

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install fitting for 5/8-inch flare tubing systems in HVAC, refrigeration, plumbing, and gas piping applications requiring lead-free brass fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or HVAC technician. Before making or breaking any flare connection, shut off and depressurize the line being serviced. Flare ends must be properly deburred and flared with a calibrated flare tool to the correct flare angle before tightening the fitting. Refer to applicable local plumbing codes, IFGC, or refrigerant system manufacturer guidelines for torque and pressure test requirements.
