Both connection points accept 5\/16-inch female flared fittings with a 1\/2-20 thread. The swivel design allows for rotation during installation, reducing the risk of tube twist and making alignment in tight spaces significantly easier. Rated for temperatures from -40 degrees F to 250 degrees F, this fitting suits a wide range of service conditions. Lead-free brass construction meets regulatory requirements for potable and non-potable fluid systems. HVAC technicians and plumbers are the primary installers of this type of fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis coupling is suited for residential and light commercial applications where two female flare connections must be joined in a single inline fitting. It is compatible with aluminum, brass, copper, or steel tubing, making it a versatile option across different tubing materials commonly found in HVAC refrigerant circuits, LP or natural gas supply lines, and hydraulic or fuel systems. The swivel action is particularly useful when working in confined mechanical rooms or equipment cabinets where fixed fittings would require tubing manipulation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSAE 45-degree double female flare configuration on both ends for inline coupling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSwivel design allows rotation during makeup, reducing tube stress and twist\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free brass construction meets applicable regulatory standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with aluminum, brass, copper, or steel tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated from -40 degrees F to 250 degrees F for broad service range\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-20 thread size on both ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible with aluminum, brass, copper, or steel tubing.

Shut off and recover all system pressure or refrigerant before removing or installing flare fittings. Use a calibrated flaring tool to ensure the tubing end meets SAE 45-degree flare specifications before makeup. Hand-tighten the swivel nut first, then snug with a properly sized open-end or flare wrench  -  avoid over-torquing, which can crack the flare seat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: Female Flared\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: Female Flared\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2-20\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlare Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: SAE 45 degrees\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 Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum, Brass, Copper, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.06 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: 704070-05\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67949396787506,"sku":"704070-05","price":16.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/fb3b1675397fe9ca3239fbfeac6809a4.jpg?v=1791690997","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-704070-05-flare-swivel-coupling-brass","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
