It features two compression ends and one male NPT (MNPT) port, following the NPTF thread standard for pressure-tight sealing without sealant tape on the threaded connection. The fitting is rated to 200 psi maximum working pressure and handles temperatures from -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F, making it suitable for a wide range of fluid and pneumatic line applications. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and instrumentation mechanics install this type of fitting in control line, instrument air, and process fluid assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is used in residential and light commercial applications where a compression tube branch must connect to a male NPT port on a valve, manifold, or instrument. Typical install scenarios include control line tees in HVAC refrigeration circuits, pneumatic instrument tubing, and low-pressure fluid distribution headers. The brass construction provides corrosion resistance in air, water, and many common refrigerant or oil-mist environments. The 1\/8-27 thread size is standard for small-bore NPT fittings found throughout HVAC and plumbing systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo compression tube ends and one 1\/8-27 MNPT port for branch tee configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNPTF thread standard provides a pressure-tight mechanical seal on the threaded connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 200 psi maximum working pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOperating temperature range of -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction for corrosion resistance in fluid and pneumatic service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style compression branch tee for use in small-bore tubing assemblies with 1\/8-27 NPTF male threaded ports in HVAC, plumbing, and light industrial pneumatic or fluid control systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a licensed plumber, HVAC technician, or instrumentation mechanic. Depressurize and isolate the line fully before disassembling any compression fitting. Compression nuts should be tightened hand-snug and then a fixed number of turns per the tube OD and fitting manufacturer guidelines — do not overtighten brass compression fittings as this can crack the ferrule. Verify thread engagement and pressure-test the assembly before returning the system to service.\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\u003eEnd Connections\u003c\/strong\u003e: Compression x Compression x MNPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8-27 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 200 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: -65 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: 172C-6-2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542515122482,"sku":"172C-6-2","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/597445ace12c40807dabf26725a88268.jpg?v=1785902542","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-172c-6-2-compression-male-branch-tee-brass-200-psi","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
