Gastite 6100 Female Compression Fitting 1/4 Inch Brass

Product Description

The GASTITE 6100 is a 1/4-inch female compression fitting assembly constructed from solid brass. It is designed for field installation without special tools, making it a practical choice for plumbers, HVAC technicians, and gas line installers working on tubing connections in residential and light commercial applications. The solid brass body provides corrosion resistance and durability in compressed gas and fluid service environments. The compression-style connection delivers a secure, leak-resistant seal that can be made up using standard hand tools already on the truck.

This fitting assembly is suited for use in gas supply lines, refrigeration tubing connections, and similar applications where a reliable female compression termination is required. It is appropriate for both new construction and retrofit work where field-applied fittings are preferred. The tool-free field assembly design reduces installation time and eliminates the need for specialty crimping or flaring equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, HVAC technician, or gas fitter in accordance with applicable local codes, including the IFGC and IPC where relevant. Shut off the gas or fluid supply and depressurize the line completely before making or breaking any fitting connection. Hand-tighten the compression nut before applying a final snug turn with a wrench — do not overtighten, as this can deform the ferrule and compromise the seal. Leak-test all connections with an approved gas detection solution after restoring pressure.
