It accepts 1\/2 inch outside diameter tubing on the flare ends and connects to threaded ports via a 1\/2-14 NPTF male thread. The 45-degree flare angle conforms to standard SAE flare specifications. Constructed from brass, this fitting delivers good corrosion resistance and is suited for applications requiring reliable leak-free joints at branch connection points. Licensed plumbers, HVAC-R technicians, and pipefitters install this type of fitting during system assembly or service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is appropriate for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC-R refrigerant piping, fuel lines, and hydraulic circuits where a branch tee with a male NPT port is required. The flare x MNPTF end configuration allows the technician to split a single fluid or gas line into two paths while simultaneously connecting to a threaded port on equipment or a manifold. It is sold and packaged individually.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e45-degree SAE flare angle for secure, leak-resistant tube connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch tube outside diameter flare ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-14 NPTF male thread for positive pressure-seal engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction for corrosion resistance in fluid and gas service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMale branch tee configuration enables single-to-dual branch splits at a threaded port\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIndividual unit packaging — no minimum order quantity beyond one piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for systems using 1\/2 inch OD 45-degree flared tubing and 1\/2-14 NPTF threaded ports in plumbing, HVAC-R, fuel, or hydraulic applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber, HVAC-R technician, or qualified pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the IPC or IFGC. De-pressurize and isolate the system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Ensure tubing ends are cut square, deburred, and properly flared to 45 degrees before seating against the fitting to avoid leaks. Do not overtighten flare nuts, as brass fittings are susceptible to thread and seat damage from excess torque.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Male Branch Tee\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlared Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 45 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2-14\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flare x MNPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.27 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27121707\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: PARKER\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 145F-8-8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542772744498,"sku":"145F-8-8","price":30.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d33ac48d922b9d0eeb45e80301a9e159_d6442a96-6f86-41cb-811e-bb6d23f80bed.jpg?v=1785906936","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-145f-8-8-brass-male-branch-tee-1-2-in-od-45-flare-mnptf","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
