Midland Industries 10094 Copper Bonnet 3/16 in Flare Fitting

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 10094 is a copper bonnet fitting designed for SAE 45-degree flare connections on 3/16-inch hydraulic tubing. This small-diameter bonnet provides a leak-resistant flared connection in hydraulic and fluid-transfer lines across a wide range of operating conditions. It is rated to 1900 psi and handles temperatures from -65 to 250 degrees F, making it suitable for demanding service environments. The 0.31-inch diameter by 0.16-inch length form factor fits tight spaces where compact fittings are required. Plumbers, hydraulic technicians, and mechanical trades install this type of fitting as part of flare-style tubing assemblies.

This bonnet is intended for use with aluminum, brass, copper, and steel hydraulic tubing with a 0.03-inch tube wall thickness. It is a standard component in SAE 45-degree flare systems found in hydraulic lines, refrigeration tubing circuits, and fluid-handling assemblies in both residential and light commercial applications. Its copper construction provides corrosion resistance and reliable sealing performance in compressed fluid systems.

Compatibility

Designed for use with aluminum, brass, copper, and steel hydraulic tubing at 3/16-inch connection size with a 0.03-inch tube wall, within SAE 45-degree flare fitting systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified plumber, hydraulic technician, or mechanical tradesperson familiar with SAE 45-degree flare fitting procedures. Depressurize and isolate the hydraulic or fluid line completely before disassembly or installation. Use the appropriate flare nut and flaring tool to achieve a proper 45-degree seat - do not overtighten, as copper fittings can be damaged by excessive torque. Verify the tube wall thickness and tubing material are within the specified parameters before assembly.
