Norgren 124250628 Ptc Male Adapter 3/8 Od 1/4 Nptf Brass

Product Description

The NORGREN 124250628 is a straight push-to-connect male adapter fitting from the Pneufit line, designed to create a fast, tool-free connection between tubing and a male NPT port. The fitting accepts 3/8-inch outside diameter tubing on one end and threads into a 1/4-inch NPTF port on the other. Constructed from nickel-plated brass, it is rated for a maximum working pressure of 260 psi and handles temperatures from -4 degrees F to 175 degrees F. It also carries a vacuum rating of 29.5 in-Hg. HVAC technicians, pneumatic system integrators, and plumbing contractors install this fitting in compressed air, pneumatic control, and fluid distribution systems.

This adapter is suited for residential and light commercial pneumatic plumbing applications where a tube-to-male NPT transition is required in a straight inline configuration. The push-to-connect design eliminates the need for ferrules, compression sleeves, or special tooling, making it practical for service work or panel assembly where speed and reliability both matter. It is appropriate for use in air lines, instrument tubing, and similar low-to-medium pressure pneumatic circuits operating within the rated temperature range.

Key Features

• Push-to-connect design accepts 3/8-inch OD tubing without ferrules or compression hardware
• 1/4-inch NPTF male thread for leak-resistant tapered pipe thread connections
• Nickel-plated brass construction resists corrosion and provides durability in pneumatic service
• 260 psi maximum working pressure rating
• Rated from -4 degrees F to 175 degrees F for a wide service temperature range
• Vacuum-rated to 29.5 in-Hg, suitable for vacuum line applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style push-to-connect adapter for pneumatic tubing systems using 3/8-inch OD tubing and 1/4-inch NPTF male threaded ports.

Installation Notes

This fitting is installed by pneumatic technicians, HVAC controls technicians, and plumbing professionals. Before installing or removing any fitting, depressurize the line completely and verify zero pressure at the connection point. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of damage before engagement; NPTF tapered threads are self-sealing by design but thread sealant tape may be used in accordance with system requirements and applicable codes. To release tubing from the push-to-connect end, depress the collet ring and withdraw the tube straight out without twisting.
