Braxton Harris Company F41FS10 Flare Brass Forged Short Nut

Product Description

The BRAXTON HARRIS COMPANY F41FS10 is a 5/8-inch flare brass forged short nut designed for secure flare-fitting connections on refrigeration, HVAC, plumbing, and fuel-handling systems. Manufactured from forged brass, this short nut provides reliable thread engagement on 5/8-inch flare fittings and is rated for a temperature range of 65 to 250 degrees F. Its compact forged construction makes it well suited for tight spaces where a standard-length nut may not seat properly. Licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, and refrigeration mechanics are the primary installers of this fitting component.

This flare nut is compatible with copper, brass, aluminum, and welded steel tubing. It is used on lines handling a wide range of liquids and gases, including gasoline, grease oil, water, vacuum lines, air lines, LP gas, natural gas, refrigerants, and air conditioning lines. Its versatility across fluid and gas types makes it a practical shop-stock item for field service techs who work across HVAC, refrigeration, and plumbing applications in both residential and light commercial settings.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician, plumber, or refrigeration mechanic following applicable codes such as the IPC or IFGC. De-pressurize and isolate the line before disconnecting or installing any flare fitting. Use a properly calibrated flaring tool to ensure the tube end is prepared to the correct flare angle before seating the nut. Do not over-tighten brass flare nuts, as this can deform the flare seat and cause leaks.
