Ham-let 3101798 Brass Compression Tube Union

Product Description

The HAM-LET 3101798 is a brass compression tube union designed to join two compression-end tube runs in a single inline fitting. Constructed from brass meeting ASTM B68 and ASTM B75 standards, it provides a reliable, leak-resistant connection without soldering or threading. The union measures 1.4 inches in overall length and weighs 0.25 pounds. It is rated for a temperature range of -4 degrees F to 98.6 degrees F, making it appropriate for a wide range of fluid and gas service applications. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and mechanical contractors install this fitting when a permanent or serviceable tube-to-tube connection is required in compression-type tubing systems.

This compression union is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC refrigerant line service, and instrumentation tubing applications where compression fittings are specified. The Compression x Compression end configuration allows direct inline connection of two tube segments of matching outside diameter. It corresponds to Swagelok part number B-200-6, making it a recognized cross-reference for instrumentation and process piping work where that designation is commonly called out on drawings or spec sheets.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified HVAC or instrumentation technician. Shut off and depressurize the tubing system completely before disassembly or fitting installation. Ensure tube ends are cut square, deburred, and clean before inserting into the compression nut and ferrule. Do not overtighten compression nuts - follow the fitting manufacturer's turn-past-finger-tight guidance for the ferrule material in use.
