Manufactured from lead-free brass, this nut retains the compression sleeve on the fitting body, simplifying installation and reducing the chance of lost components during assembly. It carries a 9\/16-24 thread size and is rated for temperatures from -40 degrees F to 250 degrees F, making it suitable for a broad range of service conditions. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pipefitters use this type of fitting hardware where a secure, leak-resistant compression connection is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis captive sleeve nut is used in residential and light commercial plumbing, refrigeration lines, and mechanical piping applications where a compression-style connection is specified. It is compatible with copper, aluminum, and plastic tubing at the 3\/8-inch size. The lead-free brass construction meets requirements for potable water systems and other regulated plumbing installations where lead content restrictions apply. It is a direct-use component in new installations and service work on existing compression fitting assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLead-free brass construction meets potable water and regulated plumbing standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch compression connection size for standard tubing applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaptive sleeve design retains the compression sleeve during installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9\/16-24 thread size for precise, secure engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated for -40 degrees F to 250 degrees F operating temperature range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with copper, aluminum, and plastic tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompatible with copper, aluminum, and plastic tubing in 3\/8-inch compression fitting assemblies.

Shut off and depressurize the water or fluid line before disassembling or replacing any compression fitting component. Hand-tighten the sleeve nut onto the fitting body before applying final torque with a wrench to avoid cross-threading the brass threads. Do not overtighten, as brass compression fittings can deform the sleeve or fitting seat if excessive force is applied.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Compression\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\/16-24\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: -40 degrees F to 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lead-Free Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Tubing\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper, Aluminum, Plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.45 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.55 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 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: 700261-06\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67950391361842,"sku":"700261-06","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4d5e7ca8ae044985404f488e1812f828_d98343a5-d739-40f3-bd1f-dde45446d571.jpg?v=1791715946","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-700261-06-captive-sleeve-nut-3-8-in-brass","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
