Norgren C24250648 Push-to-connect Straight Adapter Fitting

Product Description

The NORGREN C24250648 is a straight push-to-connect adapter fitting designed to join 3/8 inch OD tubing to a 1/2 inch male NPTF threaded port. Constructed from brass, this fitting handles a maximum working pressure of 150 psi and operates across a temperature range of 0 degrees F to 175 degrees F. The nitrile O-ring provides a reliable seal within the push-to-connect mechanism, reducing installation time compared to compression-style fittings. It is commonly installed by HVAC technicians, plumbers, and fluid-system mechanics working on pneumatic or low-pressure fluid lines where a tube-to-male-NPT transition is required.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial pneumatic, fluid control, and instrumentation applications. The push-to-connect end accepts 3/8 inch OD tubing for fast, tool-free tube insertion, while the 1/2 inch NPTF male thread end connects to female-threaded ports on valves, manifolds, regulators, and equipment panels. It is a compact, single-piece adapter appropriate for installations where space is limited and a straight inline transition between tube and threaded pipe is needed.

Key Features

• Push-to-connect end accepts 3/8 inch OD tubing without additional tools
• 1/2 inch NPTF male thread for leak-resistant connection to female NPT ports
• Brass construction for corrosion resistance in pneumatic and compatible fluid systems
• Nitrile O-ring seal rated for the full working pressure range
• Rated to 150 psi maximum working pressure
• Compact overall length of 0.94 inches for tight-space installations

Compatibility

Designed as a straight inline adapter for pneumatic and fluid-control systems using 3/8 inch OD tubing and 1/2 inch female NPT threaded ports. Suitable for use wherever a tube-to-male-NPT push-to-connect transition fitting is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation of this fitting should be performed by a qualified HVAC technician, plumber, or pipefitter in accordance with applicable system pressure ratings and local codes. Depressurize and drain the system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Insert tubing fully into the push-to-connect end until it seats against the internal stop, and verify the tube is cut squarely and free of burrs before insertion. Apply thread sealant appropriate for NPTF connections on the male thread end per the system fluid compatibility requirements.
