The compression end accepts 1\/2-inch OD plastic tubing, while the male NPTF threaded end measures 3\/8 inch. Brass construction provides corrosion resistance and durability in both wet and dry service environments. This fitting is commonly installed by plumbers and HVAC technicians where plastic supply lines transition to threaded fittings on valves, appliances, or distribution manifolds. Its compact profile suits tight installation spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is used in residential and light commercial plumbing applications where plastic tubing runs terminate at a threaded connection point. Typical install scenarios include ice maker lines, water supply risers, dishwasher connections, and similar low-pressure domestic water service applications. The compression design eliminates the need for soldering or special tools beyond a wrench, making it accessible for service calls requiring a fast, reliable transition from plastic tubing to an NPTF-threaded port.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-inch compression inlet accepts standard OD plastic tubing without soldering\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch male NPTF threaded outlet for secure, leak-resistant connection to threaded ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction resists corrosion in typical plumbing service conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact dimensions suit confined installation spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo special tools required beyond a standard wrench for installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style brass compression male adapter fitting for residential and light commercial plastic tubing systems requiring a 1\/2-inch compression to 3\/8-inch male NPTF transition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified technician in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the IPC. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before installing or removing any compression fitting. Hand-tighten the compression nut first, then snug with a wrench  -  avoid overtightening, which can crack plastic tubing or distort the compression sleeve. Inspect for leaks after restoring pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: Compression\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: Male NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.85 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.85 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: MIDLAND INDUSTRIES\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 00568-0806\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67950352728370,"sku":"00568-0806","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/24c0fdd7aad868f257222e75e2fb5323_a99dd375-7a59-43c6-a8f8-7232c02bd0ec.jpg?v=1791714677","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-00568-0806-brass-compression-connector","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
