The fitting transitions a 5\/8 inch compression connection on one end to a 3\/4 inch FNPTF (female national pipe thread fuel) connection on the other. Constructed from brass, it is rated for service up to 150 psi across a temperature range of -65 to 250 degrees F. The 1.12 inch hex body allows standard wrench engagement for secure installation. This adapter is suitable for use in plumbing, HVAC, and light industrial applications where a reliable compression-to-threaded transition is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis adapter is intended for use with copper, aluminum, and thermoplastic tubing in residential and commercial installations. Typical applications include connecting refrigerant or fluid lines to threaded valve bodies, manifolds, or equipment ports. The FNPTF thread form provides a pressure-rated sealed connection without the need for a separate ferrule at the threaded end. Its compact profile and standard hex sizing make it straightforward to install in tight spaces where inline transitions are common.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/8 inch compression inlet connects directly to copper, aluminum, or thermoplastic tubing without soldering\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/4 inch FNPTF outlet provides a pressure-rated threaded connection to NPT-compatible ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction offers corrosion resistance and durability across a wide service range\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 150 psi working pressure for reliable performance in pressurized systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOperating temperature range of -65 to 250 degrees F suits both chilled and hot fluid service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1.12 inch hex for standard wrench engagement during installation and removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with copper, aluminum, and thermoplastic tubing in compression fitting applications.

Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any compression fittings. Use a backup wrench on the mating fitting to prevent twisting the tubing or connected equipment during tightening. Inspect the compression ferrule and tubing end for burrs or damage before assembly to ensure a leak-free seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inches (Compression)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches (FNPTF)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13\/16-18 x 3\/4-14\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHex Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCenter to End\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.15 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWorking Pressure\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\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Tubing\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper, Aluminum, Thermoplastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.145 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: 18163\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67951506096434,"sku":"18163","price":16.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a96186caf51fe63a8550f710e21dc178.jpg?v=1791728274","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-18163-brass-compression-adapter-5-8x3-4-fnptf","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
