Parker 10-6 Gbz-ss Compression Tube Connector 5/8 in Ss

Product Description

The PARKER 10-6 GBZ-SS is a stainless steel compression tube connector designed to join tubing to a female NPT threaded port in high-pressure fluid and gas systems. It features a compression-style end on one side and a female NPT thread on the other, creating a reliable, leak-resistant connection without welding or soldering. Rated to 6100 psi maximum working pressure, this fitting is built for demanding service environments where pressure integrity and corrosion resistance are critical. The stainless steel construction makes it suitable for aggressive media and washdown-compatible installations. It is installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and instrumentation technicians across industrial and mechanical systems.

This connector is used in tubing runs where a compression-to-female-NPT transition is required. Typical applications include instrumentation lines, hydraulic tubing circuits, process control piping, refrigeration interconnects, and pneumatic systems requiring a secure, vibration-resistant mechanical connection. The 5/8 inch outside diameter tube size and NPT thread standard make it compatible with standard tubing and pipe fittings used in North American plumbing and industrial piping systems. It is equally applicable in light commercial and industrial settings wherever stainless steel is specified for corrosion resistance or sanitary requirements.

Key Features

• Rated to 6100 psi maximum working pressure for high-pressure service
• Stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance for aggressive media and wet environments
• Compression x FNPT end connections allow tubing-to-pipe transitions without welding or soldering
• 5/8 inch tube outside diameter fits standard tubing sizes used in North American systems
• NPT thread standard ensures compatibility with common pipe fittings and threaded ports
• Compact single-piece body minimizes installation footprint in tight spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression tube connector for systems using 5/8 inch OD tubing with female NPT threaded ports, conforming to NPT thread standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or qualified instrumentation technician familiar with compression fitting procedures. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before disassembling or connecting any fittings. Use appropriate thread sealant on the NPT end per the applicable piping code, and ensure the compression ferrule seats correctly on the tubing before tightening. Do not overtighten the compression nut, as this can deform the ferrule and compromise the seal.
