It is used in fluid and gas distribution lines where a compression tube must interface with a threaded port. The fitting features a 1\/2-24 thread on the compression side and a 1\/4-18 NPT thread on the male end. Rated for a temperature range of -40 to 250 degrees F, this adapter suits a wide range of service conditions. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians install this fitting in both residential and light commercial applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis adapter is suited for use in plumbing, HVAC, refrigeration, and fuel-gas distribution systems where copper, aluminum, or plastic tubing must connect to a threaded fitting or valve port. Its compact form factor makes it appropriate for tight installations in equipment cabinets, appliance connections, and panel assemblies. The lead-free brass construction meets requirements for potable water contact applications where lead-free materials are mandated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free brass construction meets lead-free compliance requirements for potable water systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/16 inch compression inlet accepts copper, aluminum, or plastic tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch MPT outlet for direct connection to threaded ports and valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThread specification: 1\/2-24 compression x 1\/4-18 pipe thread\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOperating temperature range of -40 to 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact dimensions suitable for space-restricted installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with copper, aluminum, or plastic tubing in compression-to-MPT adapter applications.

Shut off the water or gas supply and relieve system pressure before beginning work. Hand-tighten the compression nut onto the tubing, then use an appropriately sized wrench to snug the connection  -  do not overtighten, as brass threads and compression ferrules can be damaged. Apply thread sealant or tape to the MPT threads in accordance with local plumbing codes and the fitting manufacturer's guidelines.\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 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: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: MPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Specification\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2-24 x 1\/4-18\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 to 250 degrees F\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: 0.55 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.3 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: 0.06 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: LF68-54\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67951353233714,"sku":"LF68-54","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/29dd6f004f38a2f113a1a17d243477b4_98491faa-d1de-4655-97aa-f537aa44aa6d.jpg?v=1791725076","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-lf68-54-brass-compression-adapter","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
