Constructed from brass, it accepts 1\/4 inch tube OD on both ends and features a 3\/8-24 thread. The shut-off function allows flow to be isolated at the connector itself, making it a practical choice for service points where quick shut-off capability is required inline. Rated to 150 psi and suited for operating temperatures from -40 to 150 degrees F, this fitting is well-matched to refrigeration, HVAC, and light industrial plumbing work where a compact, reliable flareless brass fitting is specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis connector is used in residential and light commercial HVAC, refrigeration, and plumbing systems wherever a flareless tube-by-tube connection with an integral shut-off is needed. It is commonly installed in service ports, instrumentation lines, and branch connections in copper or compatible soft-metal tubing runs. Technicians working on refrigerant circuits, oil lines, or low-pressure fluid systems will find this fitting appropriate for both new construction and retrofit applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle end shut-off allows in-line flow isolation without additional valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlareless design  -  no flaring tool required for installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrass construction provides corrosion resistance for refrigerant and fluid service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated to 150 psi working pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWide temperature range: -40 to 150 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact profile at 3.4 inches length and 0.65 inches width\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style flareless brass fitting for 1\/4 inch tube OD connections in residential and light commercial HVAC, refrigeration, and plumbing systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified HVAC technician or plumber. De-energize and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any fitting. Flareless fittings rely on correct tube insertion depth and proper nut torque  -  follow the fitting manufacturer guidelines for tube prep and assembly. Ensure tubing is cut cleanly and deburred before seating in the connector body.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch Tube OD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch Tube OD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flareless Tube OD x Tube OD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-24\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: -40 to 150 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.65 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.14 pounds\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: 20401\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67952801874226,"sku":"20401","price":74.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/01de503f180b8dfb7fcf2cd3f8babef3_cf94655b-3990-4970-a042-b0b675a78a6e.jpg?v=1791751816","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-20401-1-4-in-brass-shut-off-connector","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
