Anderson Metals Corp 754070-10 Brass Flare Swivel Nut 5/8 in

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS CORP 754070-10 is a 5/8-inch brass flare swivel nut designed for use in flared tubing connections on gas, refrigeration, and plumbing lines. It provides a leak-resistant, rotatable joint that allows technicians to thread fittings without twisting the supply line. Constructed from lead-free brass, this swivel nut meets the requirements of Public Law 111-380, making it compliant for use in potable water applications where lead-free materials are mandated. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and gas fitters rely on this type of fitting to complete flare connections cleanly and efficiently.

This swivel nut is suited for residential and light commercial installations where 5/8-inch flare connections are required. Common applications include copper refrigerant lines, gas appliance supply connections, and water service tubing. It is typically used alongside a flare fitting body to create a mechanically sound, pressure-rated joint without the need for solder or thread sealant. The bulk packaging makes it practical for service vehicles and shop inventory where multiple units are needed on a regular basis.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use flare swivel nut for 5/8-inch flare fittings in residential and commercial HVAC, refrigeration, gas, and plumbing systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, or gas fitters. Shut off the relevant gas, refrigerant, or water supply before disassembling any flare connection. Ensure the tubing end is properly flared using a calibrated flaring tool before seating the nut — an improper flare is a leading cause of joint leaks. Do not overtighten; follow applicable IPC or IFGC torque guidance for brass flare fittings in your jurisdiction.
