The captive sleeve design keeps the compression sleeve retained on the fitting body during assembly, reducing dropped components and speeding up installation in tight spaces. Constructed from brass, this adapter provides reliable corrosion resistance and is rated for a temperature range of -65 to 250 degrees F. It is suited for use in refrigeration, HVAC, pneumatic, and plumbing applications where a transition from compression tubing to a male threaded connection is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis adapter is commonly used in residential and light commercial HVAC systems, refrigeration lines, and compressed air or gas distribution networks. Typical installation scenarios include connecting copper or aluminum tubing to instrument ports, gauge connections, or control valves with 1\/8-inch NPTF threaded inlets. The compact dimensions make it well suited for installations where space around the fitting is limited.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaptive sleeve retains compression sleeve on body for easier single-handed assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/4-inch compression inlet to 1\/8-inch male NPTF outlet transition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrass construction for corrosion resistance and durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated for service from -65 to 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact profile at approximately 1.1 inches in length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for systems requiring a 1\/4-inch compression to 1\/8-inch male NPTF adapter in brass construction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, or refrigeration mechanics. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any compression fitting. Verify that tubing is cut cleanly and deburred before inserting into the compression end to ensure a leak-free seal. NPTF threads are designed for dry-seal connections, but local codes or system requirements may specify the use of thread sealant  -  follow applicable standards such as ASME B1.20.3.\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\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\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: Male NPTF\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\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.1 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.45 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.04 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: 26179\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67948934955314,"sku":"26179","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ff0a52db1ff0ce83120023a545015526_77cc61f1-2b24-4dc1-b8c9-69a38ecdc24a.jpg?v=1791677250","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-26179-compression-male-adapter-brass","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
