Parker 2-2 Fbz-b Compression Tube Connector 1/8 Inch Mnpt

Product Description

The PARKER 2-2 FBZ-B is a straight brass compression tube connector designed to join tubing to a male NPT threaded port in fluid and gas distribution systems. It features a compression inlet on one end and a 1/8 inch MNPT threaded outlet on the other, creating a secure, leak-resistant mechanical connection without soldering or flaring. Rated to 3600 psi maximum working pressure, this fitting is built to handle demanding service conditions. Manufactured from brass conforming to ASTM-B-453 and ASTM-B16 standards, it delivers corrosion resistance and dimensional consistency expected in professional installations.

This fitting is suited for use in HVAC, refrigeration, pneumatic control, and instrumentation tubing runs where a compression-to-male-pipe transition is required. It is commonly installed in tight-clearance panel or manifold applications where a compact straight connector is needed. The 1.2 inch overall length keeps the assembly compact. Licensed trades professionals, including HVAC technicians, plumbers, and instrumentation specialists, install this fitting in both residential and light commercial systems.

Key Features

• Compression x MNPT end connections for tool-free tube attachment on the compression side
• 3600 psi maximum working pressure rating for high-pressure service
• 1/8 inch male NPT thread for direct port connection to standard fittings and valves
• Straight fitting shape simplifies inline tube-to-pipe transitions
• Brass construction per ASTM-B-453 and ASTM-B16 for corrosion resistance and pressure integrity
• 1.2 inch overall length suits compact installation spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for compression tube-to-MNPT connections in residential and commercial fluid or pneumatic systems. Cross-references Swagelok part number B-200-1-2 for sourcing comparison purposes.

Installation Notes

Installation of compression fittings is typically performed by licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, or instrumentation mechanics. Before servicing any line, depressurize and isolate the system completely. Hand-tighten the compression nut onto the tubing, then use an appropriate wrench to advance the nut the additional turns specified by the fitting manufacturer to seat the ferrule. Do not overtighten, as this can deform the ferrule and compromise the seal. Verify system pressure integrity after installation before returning to service.
