Cpc Colder Products MCD1703 Push-to-connect Coupling Body

Product Description

The CPC COLDER PRODUCTS MCD1703 is a push-to-connect coupling body designed for quick, tool-free tube connections in fluid handling systems. Built from chrome-plated brass, this non-valved, free-floating coupling body accepts 3/16 inch inside diameter tubing and is rated to 250 psi maximum working pressure. The operating temperature range spans -40 degrees F to 180 degrees F, making it suitable for a wide range of general-purpose liquid and low-pressure pneumatic applications. Plumbers, mechanical contractors, and industrial maintenance technicians install this fitting wherever a reliable, reusable push-connect junction is needed without the complexity of threaded or compression fittings.

This coupling body is used in general-purpose fluid transfer lines across residential and light commercial settings, as well as in equipment and instrumentation plumbing. Typical installations include appliance water lines, OEM fluid circuits, and low-pressure pneumatic tubing runs where 3/16 inch ID tubing is routed. The chrome finish provides corrosion resistance in moderate-humidity environments. The non-valved design means flow is unrestricted when connected, and the free-floating collet allows for slight tube movement without compromising the seal.

Key Features

• Push-to-connect design allows tool-free tube insertion and removal
• Chrome-plated brass construction offers corrosion resistance and durability
• Rated to 250 psi maximum working pressure
• Wide temperature range: -40 degrees F to 180 degrees F
• Non-valved, free-floating collet accommodates minor tube movement
• Nitrile O-ring provides reliable sealing across general-purpose fluids

Compatibility

Designed for use with 3/16 inch inside diameter tubing in general-purpose fluid handling and low-pressure pneumatic applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by plumbers or mechanical technicians following applicable IPC and facility-specific fluid system standards. Before servicing or installing this fitting, depressurize and drain the line completely. Ensure tubing ends are cut cleanly and squarely with no burrs, as irregular cuts can compromise the push-connect seal. Do not exceed the rated working pressure of 250 psi or operate outside the specified temperature range.
