Norgren C00230806 Stem Reducer Straight Fitting Brass

Product Description

The NORGREN C00230806 is a straight stem reducer push-to-connect tube fitting constructed from brass. It transitions between a 6 mm outside diameter tube and an 8 mm outside diameter stem using a push-to-connect interface on the tube side and a stem connection on the opposite end. Rated for a maximum working pressure of 150 psi and a temperature range of 0 to 175 degrees F, this fitting is suited for general-purpose pneumatic and fluid line applications. The nitrile o-ring provides a reliable seal across the operating range. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial maintenance technicians typically install this type of fitting in light to medium-duty line assemblies.

This fitting is used in general-purpose fluid and pneumatic control systems where a tube line must reduce down to a smaller stem connection in a straight-run configuration. Its compact straight geometry makes it appropriate for tight routing in control panels, compressed air distribution lines, and similar installations. The brass construction makes it compatible with dry air, water, and many non-corrosive media. With an overall length of 44.50 mm, it fits well in space-constrained assemblies.

Key Features

• Straight push-to-connect design for fast, tool-free tube installation on the tube side
• Stem reducer configuration transitions 6 mm tube OD to 8 mm stem OD
• Brass body for durability in general-purpose pneumatic and fluid applications
• Nitrile o-ring seal for reliable performance across the rated temperature range
• Rated to 150 psi maximum working pressure
• Operating temperature range of 0 to 175 degrees F

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose stem reducer fitting for use in pneumatic and fluid control lines requiring a push-to-connect tube interface with a stem outlet. Suitable for general-purpose applications as noted by the manufacturer.

Installation Notes

Shut off all pressure to the line before installing or removing push-to-connect fittings. Ensure the tube end is cut cleanly and squarely with no burrs before inserting into the push-to-connect port to achieve a proper seal. Verify that the tube outside diameter and stem outside diameter match the fitting specifications before installation. Follow applicable system pressure ratings and local mechanical codes when integrating into fluid or pneumatic assemblies.
