Eaton 900605-4S Steel Flared Tube Sleeve 1/4 in Od 37 Deg

Product Description

The EATON 900605-4S is a 3-piece steel flared tube sleeve designed for use in hydraulic and fluid transfer line assemblies. This fitting accepts a 1/4 inch tube outside diameter and features a 37-degree flare angle, conforming to SAE standard 070115. The sleeve mates with the tube end at the flare to create a leak-resistant mechanical connection. It is installed by licensed plumbers, hydraulic technicians, and HVAC or refrigeration mechanics working on flared tubing systems. The compact overall length of 0.41 inches makes it suited for tight routing and close-quarter fittings.

This sleeve is used in residential and light commercial fluid and refrigerant line applications where 37-degree JIC or SAE flare connections are specified. It is a standard component in hydraulic lines, fuel lines, and mechanical tubing assemblies. The 3-piece construction allows the sleeve to be positioned on the tube prior to flaring, then seated against the fitting body to complete the connection. Technicians working with copper, steel, or compatible tubing in repair or new-installation contexts will find this part a direct-fit solution for standard 1/4 inch OD flare joints.

Key Features

• 37-degree flare angle meets SAE 070115 standard
• 1/4 inch tube outside diameter for precise fitment
• Steel construction for durability in pressure-rated line assemblies
• 3-piece design for proper tube end engagement before flaring
• Compact overall length of 0.41 inches suits tight installations
• Flare end connection type for leak-resistant mechanical joints

Compatibility

Designed as a standard SAE 37-degree flare sleeve for use with 1/4 inch OD tubing in hydraulic, fuel, and fluid transfer line assemblies requiring flare-end fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified plumbers, hydraulic technicians, or HVAC mechanics familiar with flared tubing procedures. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before disassembly or fitting installation. A proper tube flaring tool calibrated for 37-degree flare angles is required to form a correct seat. Do not overtighten the mating nut, as this can crack or deform the flare and result in a leak.
