Constructed from stainless steel, this fitting provides corrosion resistance in demanding service environments. The hex measures 0.62 inches across and the overall length is 1.12 inches, making it a compact, inline reducer suited for tight installations. It follows SAE 45-degree flare geometry, which creates a metal-to-metal seat for a leak-resistant connection without the need for thread sealant. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and refrigeration mechanics install this type of fitting when reducing line size within a flared tubing system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is appropriate for residential and light commercial applications involving copper or compatible tubing in gas, refrigeration, or fluid lines where SAE 45-degree flare connections are specified. It is commonly installed during new construction, system modifications, or service repairs that require a size reduction between flared tubing segments. The stainless steel construction makes it suitable for environments where brass fittings may be subject to corrosion or where stainless is required by specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSAE 45-degree flare geometry provides a metal-to-metal seal without thread sealant\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in demanding environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch male flared inlet transitions to 1\/4-inch female flared outlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.62-inch hex allows standard wrench engagement during installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact 1.12-inch overall length fits in confined spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for systems using SAE 45-degree flare connections with 3\/8-inch and 1\/4-inch tubing sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber, HVAC technician, or refrigeration mechanic familiar with flare fitting assembly. Shut off and depressurize the line before disassembling any flare connection. Use two wrenches when tightening flare fittings to prevent twisting the tubing. Inspect the flare seat on the tubing for deformation or debris before making up the connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: Male Flared\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: Female Flared\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlare Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: SAE 45-Degree\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHex Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.62 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.06 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: 10463SS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67949612663090,"sku":"10463SS","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7b4afb7759af0142eec8659eb98ee65a.jpg?v=1791696099","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-10463ss-sae-45-deg-flare-reducer-ss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
