It connects an 8 mm outside diameter tube to a 6 mm outside diameter stem using a push-to-connect mechanism that eliminates the need for threaded assembly or compression tools. The fitting is rated for a maximum working pressure of 150 psi and a maximum working temperature of 175 degrees F, with a lower service limit of 0 degrees F. An integrated nitrile O-ring provides the primary sealing element. HVAC technicians, plumbers, and pneumatic system installers use this fitting where a tube must transition to a smaller stem port in a compact, serviceable connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is suited for use in pneumatic control lines, HVAC equipment interconnects, and general fluid handling systems that operate within its rated pressure and temperature range. Its straight body geometry makes it appropriate for inline runs where space is limited and a direct tube-to-stem transition is required. The push-to-connect design speeds up installation in production or field-service environments. With an overall length of 44 mm, it fits into tight panel or bracket installations without requiring extended clearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePush-to-connect mechanism accepts 8 mm OD tubing without ferrules or wrenches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight stem expander body transitions 8 mm tube down to 6 mm OD stem\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction provides corrosion resistance in air, water, and mild fluid service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNitrile O-ring seal supports compatibility with a range of pneumatic and hydraulic media\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 150 psi maximum working pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eService temperature range of 0 degrees F to 175 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit push-to-connect stem expander for systems using 8 mm OD tubing connecting to 6 mm OD stem ports, typical in pneumatic control and HVAC equipment applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation of this fitting should be performed by a qualified HVAC technician, plumber, or pneumatic systems technician. Depressurize and isolate the system completely before removing or installing any push-to-connect fittings. Ensure tubing is cut cleanly and squarely, free of burrs, and inserted to full depth before pressurizing. Verify the installed assembly does not exceed the 150 psi pressure rating or the 175 degrees F temperature limit in service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tube x Stem\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStem Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 175 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Working Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 44 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eO-Ring Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Nitrile\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConfiguration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0088 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27121700\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: NORGREN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: C00230608\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NORGREN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51689127215410,"sku":"C00230608","price":26.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b0ec0a1db8b736c1793240e1c884f620.jpg?v=1788255047","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/norgren-c00230608-stem-expander-straight-tube-fitting","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
