Parker 10-8 Fbz-b Compression X Mnpt Brass Connector

Product Description

The PARKER 10-8 FBZ-B is a straight brass compression tube connector designed to join compression tubing to a male NPT threaded port in a single inline fitting. Rated to 2000 psi maximum working pressure, this connector suits demanding fluid and gas transfer lines found in HVAC, plumbing, and industrial service applications. The body is machined from brass meeting ASTM-B-453 and ASTM B16 standards, providing reliable corrosion resistance in typical trade environments. At 1.93 inches overall length and 0.21 pounds, this compact fitting is straightforward to install and handle on the job.

This connector is suited for residential and light commercial systems where a compression tube must terminate or transition to a 1/2 inch male NPT threaded connection. Common install scenarios include refrigerant accessory lines, water supply connections, and pneumatic control tubing. The straight configuration keeps routing simple in tight spaces. Sold individually, it works in any application requiring a reliable, pressure-rated compression-to-MNPT transition.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified plumbing, HVAC, or mechanical trades. Shut off and depressurize the line completely before disassembling or installing any compression fitting. Use appropriate tubing preparation tools to ensure a clean, square tube cut for proper ferrule seating. Verify that thread sealant or tape used on the MNPT end is compatible with the system fluid and meets applicable IPC or IFGC requirements for the installation type.
