Built from brass for corrosion resistance and long service life, this adapter is rated to 150 psi and handles temperatures from -65 to 250 degrees F. The 13\/16-18 compression thread mates with the 1\/2-14 NPT female port, and the 1 inch hex allows standard wrench engagement. It is installed by licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians in both residential and light commercial applications where a reliable compression-to-threaded transition is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis adapter is suited for use in plumbing, refrigeration, and fluid-handling systems where copper, aluminum, or thermoplastic tubing must terminate into a female NPT threaded port. Common install scenarios include connecting supply lines, instrument ports, and distribution manifolds. The compact profile  -  1.38 inches center to end  -  makes it practical in tight spaces where fitting clearance is limited.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5\/8 inch compression inlet transitions to 1\/2 inch FNPTF outlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrass construction for corrosion resistance and durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated to 150 psi working pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTemperature range: -65 to 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 inch hex for standard wrench installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with copper, aluminum, and thermoplastic tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with copper, aluminum, and thermoplastic tubing in compression fitting applications requiring a female NPT threaded outlet connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified technician following applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC. Shut off supply pressure and depressurize the line before disassembly or fitting installation. Use a wrench on the 1 inch hex flats  -  do not grip the body of the fitting. Verify tubing is cut cleanly and deburred before seating in the compression end to ensure a leak-free connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 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: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: FNPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13\/16-18 x 1\/2-14\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHex Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: -65 to 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCenter to End Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.38 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.65 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.1 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.165 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 18162\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67949952696626,"sku":"18162","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/05912d9874534a97a4a587bc2cf798f0.jpg?v=1791704728","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-18162-brass-compression-adapter","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
