Cpc Colder Products 45600 Push-to-connect Fitting 1/4 in

Product Description

The CPC COLDER PRODUCTS 45600 is a push-to-connect tube fitting connector designed for quick, tool-free tube connections in fluid handling systems. It accepts tubing with a 1/4-inch outside diameter and connects to a 1/4-inch NPT threaded port. The body is molded from polyoxymethylene (POM), a rigid acetal resin known for chemical resistance and dimensional stability. Rated to 120 psi, this fitting is suited for low-to-medium pressure pneumatic or liquid lines where a reliable, repeatable connection is required. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and equipment service techs working on tubing runs install this type of connector.

This fitting is used in residential and light commercial applications where 1/4-inch OD tubing must terminate or transition to a threaded port. Typical install scenarios include condensate drain lines, instrument air tubing, water treatment equipment, and fluid distribution manifolds. The NPT thread type makes it compatible with standard North American pipe threaded fittings and ports. It is sold individually and is suited for both new installations and field repairs where a fast-connect solution is preferred over compression or barb-style fittings.

Key Features

• Push-to-connect design allows tool-free tube insertion and removal
• Rated to 120 psi for low-to-medium pressure fluid or pneumatic service
• POM (polyoxymethylene) body provides strong chemical resistance and rigidity
• 1/4-inch NPT male thread for compatibility with standard North American threaded ports
• Accepts 1/4-inch OD tubing without additional ferrules or compression hardware
• White color finish for easy visual identification in tubing assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as a standard push-to-connect connector fitting for 1/4-inch OD tubing systems with 1/4-inch NPT threaded ports, suitable for pneumatic and fluid line applications in residential and light commercial equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by plumbing or HVAC technicians familiar with push-to-connect tube fittings. Shut off system pressure and depressurize the line before connecting or disconnecting tubing. Ensure tubing ends are cut square and free of burrs before inserting into the fitting to achieve a proper seal. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the NPT threads per standard plumbing practice before tightening into the port.
