The fitting features a 3\/4-16 thread on the flare side and a 3\/4-14 thread on the NPTF side. Built from lead-free brass, it meets regulatory requirements for potable water and fuel-line applications. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and refrigeration mechanics rely on this type of adapter to transition between SAE flare tubing connections and standard tapered pipe threads in tight mechanical systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis adapter is suited for residential and light commercial installations involving copper, brass, aluminum, or steel tubing. Typical applications include fuel gas lines, refrigerant piping, compressed air systems, and hydraulic circuits where an SAE 45-degree flare must mate to a male NPTF pipe thread. The rated temperature range of -40 degrees F to 250 degrees F makes it appropriate for both heating and cooling system installations as well as fuel supply line work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free brass construction meets regulations for potable water and fuel-line use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSAE 45-degree flare seat on the 1\/2-inch male flared end for a leak-resistant metal-to-metal seal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/4-inch male NPTF taper thread provides a dry-seal connection without requiring sealant tape in many applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with copper, brass, aluminum, and steel tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWide operating temperature range: -40 degrees F to 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact profile at approximately 1.6 inches in length for use in tight spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with copper, brass, aluminum, and steel tubing systems using SAE 45-degree flare fittings.

Always depressurize and isolate the line before disassembly or fitting installation. Hand-tighten the flare nut onto the flare seat before applying a wrench to avoid cross-threading or damaging the 45-degree seat. Inspect the flare cone for burrs or deformation prior to assembly, and verify thread engagement on the NPTF side meets the connection requirements for the specific application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lead-Free Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: Male Flared (SAE 45-degree)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 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\u003eThread Specification\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4-16 x 3\/4-14\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\u003eCompatible Tubing\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper, Brass, Aluminum, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.1 inches\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: 704048-0812\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67949815922994,"sku":"704048-0812","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c9799b6dbd64792cf5171751d8e0dfea_1c0deb3e-57e2-41a0-a996-7123129ff044.jpg?v=1791701720","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-704048-0812-flare-half-union-adapter","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
