It ships with a 26003 captive sleeve nut, keeping all compression components together for faster assembly. The brass construction provides solid corrosion resistance and durability across a wide service temperature range of -65 to 250 degrees F. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pipefitters use this type of adapter where a compression line must terminate at a threaded female port on valves, manifolds, or equipment connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis adapter fits into residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC, and refrigeration piping applications where 1\/4-inch soft copper or compatible compression tubing meets a female NPT threaded fitting. The captive sleeve nut design makes it well suited for tight spaces and repeat service work where loose ferrules and nuts create handling problems. It is a direct assembly fitting requiring no solder, flux, or heat, which makes it a practical choice in retrofit and service situations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-inch compression inlet connects to 1\/4-inch FNPTF outlet for direct tubing-to-threaded-port transition\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncludes 26003 captive sleeve nut to keep compression components together and simplify assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction resists corrosion and handles a service temperature range of -65 to 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo-solder compression connection reduces installation time and eliminates open-flame requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact profile at approximately 1.3 inches height and 0.7 inches length suits tight installation spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style compression adapter for use with 1\/4-inch compression tubing in brass fitting systems.

Shut off the supply line and relieve system pressure before making or breaking any compression connection. Hand-tighten the FNPTF threads first, then apply a wrench for final engagement  -  avoid overtightening, which can distort the brass threads. Confirm the compression sleeve seats squarely on the tubing before tightening the sleeve nut to prevent leaks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 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\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: FNPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\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\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.7 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.65 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.075 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Component\u003c\/strong\u003e: 26003 Sleeve Nut\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: 26146\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67952080453938,"sku":"26146","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/2e334f249e61ad95910bdc50b92760b2.jpg?v=1791746077","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-26146-brass-compression-adapter-1-4-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
