Midland Industries FBL-1350 Compression Ferrule 1.35 in Brass

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES FBL-1350 is a brass compression ferrule designed for use in hose and tubing assemblies requiring a secure, leak-resistant mechanical connection. With a 1.35-inch nominal size and a 1-1/4-inch length, this ferrule compresses around the hose or tubing end to create a tight seal when the fitting body is tightened. The 1-1/8-inch hole accommodates the inner hose or tube diameter. Constructed from brass, it provides solid corrosion resistance in light-duty fluid transfer applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of ferrule as part of compression fitting assemblies in low-to-medium pressure systems.

This ferrule fits into light-duty hose fitting assemblies where compression-style connections are standard. It is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, fluid transfer lines, and equipment connections where a reusable or semi-permanent compression joint is specified. The FBL-1350 is classified under crimp ferrules for brass light-duty hose fittings and is appropriate for applications that call for a 1.35-inch nominal ferrule with compression-style engagement.

Key Features

• 1.35-inch nominal size for precise fitment in compatible compression assemblies
• 1-1/4-inch length provides adequate contact area for a reliable compression seal
• 1-1/8-inch inner hole diameter sized for standard hose or tubing insertion
• Brass construction offers corrosion resistance and durability in light-duty fluid service
• Compression-style connection requires no soldering or adhesives

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service component for light-duty brass hose fitting assemblies using 1.35-inch nominal compression ferrules.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Shut off fluid supply and depressurize the line before disassembling any existing fitting. Ensure the hose or tubing end is cut cleanly and squarely before seating the ferrule. Do not over-tighten the compression nut, as brass ferrules can deform and compromise the seal.
