It is designed for use in plumbing, HVAC, and refrigeration tubing systems where two different connection types must be joined at a single point. The lead-free brass construction meets modern potable water and fuel gas code requirements. The fitting handles temperatures from -40 degrees F to 250 degrees F, making it suitable for both hot and cold fluid service. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians are the primary installers of this type of fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis adapter is used in residential and light commercial applications where aluminum, copper, or plastic tubing must transition between a compression fitting and a male flare connection. Common install scenarios include gas appliance supply lines, refrigerant tubing connections, water supply risers, and similar tubing runs that change connection type at a valve, appliance, or manifold. The fitting is part of the MAF\/USA LF Compression series and is classified as a female compression adapter within that line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free brass construction meets current code requirements for potable water and fuel gas applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch compression inlet connects to aluminum, copper, or plastic tubing without soldering\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch male flare outlet provides a reliable metal-to-metal seal at the mating connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated for service from -40 degrees F to 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-piece adapter eliminates the need for additional unions or couplings at a connection-type transition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible with aluminum, copper, or plastic tubing at the compression end.

Shut off the fluid or gas supply and depressurize the line fully before making or breaking any connection. Compression fittings require proper tube preparation and correct ferrule seating  -  do not overtighten, as this can deform the ferrule or crack the fitting body. Flare connections must be made to a properly formed flare; inspect the mating flare for damage before assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 3\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: Male Flared\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lead-Free Brass\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: Aluminum, Copper, Plastic\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: LF6646CF-46\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67951967764786,"sku":"LF6646CF-46","price":16.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/34d3edf0c9484e2c3864cd26005d0e86.jpg?v=1791742674","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-lf6646cf-46-compression-male-flare-adapter","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
