This fitting connects a 1\/2 inch OD tube on both ends to a 3\/8 inch male NPTF thread at the center port. It is rated for up to 250 psi maximum working pressure and carries a D.O.T. Air Brake designation, making it suitable for regulated brake system plumbing. The nitrile o-ring construction supports a wide service temperature range. Licensed technicians and fleet mechanics working on air brake or pneumatic lines are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is commonly used in commercial vehicle air brake systems, industrial pneumatic plumbing, and fluid handling lines where a push-to-connect tube-to-tube configuration with an intermediate male NPT branch or inline thread is required. The D.O.T. Air Brake rating means it meets federal motor vehicle safety standards for pressurized brake circuit use. It is appropriate for both residential and light commercial pneumatic applications within its rated pressure and temperature limits. Installers working on compressed air distribution or mobile equipment pneumatics will find this fitting applicable across a range of standard configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePush-to-connect design on both tube ends allows fast assembly without additional tools\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction for corrosion resistance in air and fluid service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch NPTF male thread for leak-resistant tapered thread connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch OD tube compatibility on both tube ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 250 psi maximum working pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eD.O.T.

Depressurize the air system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Ensure tubing is cut cleanly and squarely, free of burrs, and inserted to full depth before pressurizing. NPTF threads should be inspected and mated only to compatible tapered female threads; do not cross-thread or overtighten.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tube x MNPT x Tube x Male (Push-To-Connect)\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\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch NPTF Male\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 250 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Working Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: -40 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 200 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eO-Ring Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Nitrile\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: D.O.T.
