The fitting provides two compression end connections and one male NPTF threaded port, allowing a branch takeoff from a continuous tube run without cutting the main line. Rated to 1400 psi maximum working pressure and a temperature range of -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F, this fitting is built for demanding service environments. It carries a 1\/4-18 NPTF thread on the male port and is manufactured from brass for corrosion resistance in most fluid and gas applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tee fitting is suited for residential and light commercial HVAC, refrigeration, and pneumatic control systems where a branch line must be teed off an existing compression tube run. It is commonly installed by HVAC technicians, plumbers, and industrial maintenance trades in instrument tubing, pilot line, and control system assemblies. The compression connections eliminate the need for solder or flare tools at the branch point, making it practical for field installations and retrofit work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction provides corrosion resistance in most fluid and gas service environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1400 psi maximum working pressure rated for demanding pneumatic and hydraulic branch applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWide temperature range from -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F supports refrigeration and high-temp service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNPTF thread standard on the male port ensures a pressure-tight mechanical seal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompression x Compression x MNPT end configuration allows inline branch connections without cutting the main tube run\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold individually, no minimum order quantity above one unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for compression tube assemblies using 1\/4-18 NPTF male branch tee fittings in HVAC, refrigeration, pneumatic, and fluid control applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified HVAC technician, plumber, or pipefitter familiar with compression fitting assembly. De-pressurize and isolate the system before disassembly or installation. Compression fittings require proper tube preparation including a clean, square cut and deburring to achieve a leak-free seal. Do not over-tighten the compression nut, as this can deform the ferrule and compromise the seal.\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\/4-18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tee\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1400 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: 172CA-4-4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540425441586,"sku":"172CA-4-4","price":27.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c8aa0ac1b2007d35ba96ec2f0e2a2596.jpg?v=1785854789","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-172ca-4-4-compression-male-branch-tee-brass","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
