Parker 1 Pnbz-ss Compression Tube End Cap 1/16 in Ss

Product Description

The PARKER 1 PNBZ-SS is a compression-style tube end cap machined from stainless steel, designed to seal the open end of a compression tube line. It accepts tubing with a 1/16-inch outside diameter and holds a maximum working pressure of 16800 psi, making it suitable for high-pressure instrumentation, hydraulic, and pneumatic systems. Installation requires no welding or threading — the compression fitting grips and seals the tube end mechanically. This fitting is typically installed by instrumentation technicians, plumbers, and fluid-system mechanics working on tight-tolerance tubing runs.

This end cap is used in applications where a compression tube line must be terminated, capped off, or isolated without disassembling adjacent fittings. Common install scenarios include instrument tubing systems, chemical process lines, pneumatic control circuits, and hydraulic sampling lines where stainless steel construction is required for corrosion resistance or cleanliness. The 1/16-inch OD size suits fine-bore instrument tubing found in both industrial and commercial settings.

Key Features

• Compression fitting type — no soldering, threading, or welding required for installation
• Stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in harsh or wet environments
• Rated to 16800 psi maximum working pressure for high-pressure service
• Accepts 1/16-inch outside diameter tubing
• Compact end-cap design seals tube terminations cleanly without added bulk

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression tube end cap for use with 1/16-inch OD compression tubing in high-pressure instrumentation and fluid-handling systems.

Installation Notes

Depressurize and isolate the tubing system completely before removing or installing any compression fitting. Use appropriate tube cutting and deburring tools to ensure a clean, square tube end before seating the fitting. Tighten to the fitting manufacturer's standard compression fitting procedure — avoid overtightening, which can crack the ferrule or distort the tube. Follow applicable system codes and plant safety procedures when working on pressurized fluid or gas lines.
