Parker 1MSC1N-316 Compression Tube Connector Ss

Product Description

The PARKER 1MSC1N-316 is a stainless steel compression tube connector designed to create a leak-tight, permanent connection between a compression tube end and a male NPT threaded port. With a 1/16-27 thread size and a maximum working pressure of 16800 psi, this fitting is built for high-pressure instrumentation and fluid handling applications. The 316 stainless steel construction provides strong resistance to corrosion and oxidation, making it suitable for aggressive media and wide temperature extremes. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and instrumentation technicians typically install this fitting in process control, pneumatic, and hydraulic line assemblies.

This connector is used in residential and commercial settings wherever a compression tube must transition to a male NPT port. Common applications include instrumentation tubing runs, pneumatic control lines, chemical feed systems, and hydraulic circuits that operate across a broad temperature range, from cryogenic service at -425 degrees F up to 1200 degrees F. Its compact overall length of 0.93 inches suits tight-clearance installations where space is limited around manifolds or control panels.

Key Features

• 316 stainless steel body resists corrosion in harsh chemical and high-temperature environments
• Maximum working pressure of 16800 psi suits high-pressure instrumentation and hydraulic service
• Wide service temperature range from -425 degrees F to 1200 degrees F
• Compression x MNPT end connections allow direct transition from tube to threaded port without welding or brazing
• Compact 0.93-inch overall length fits space-constrained installations
• 1/16-27 MPT thread size for precise, leak-free engagement with standard NPT ports

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for compression tube systems requiring a male NPT outlet, consistent with 1/16-27 thread standard instrumentation plumbing assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified pipefitter or instrumentation technician in accordance with applicable plumbing and pressure piping codes. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before removing or installing any compression fitting. Use appropriate tube-cutting and deburring tools to ensure a clean, square tube end before seating the compression ferrule. Do not over-tighten; follow the fitting manufacturer's standard turn-past-finger-tight procedure for compression connections.
