Parker 2-2 Gbz-ss Compression Tube Connector 1/8 in Ss

Product Description

The PARKER 2-2 GBZ-SS is a straight compression tube connector designed to join compression tubing to a female NPT threaded port in a single, inline fitting. Constructed from stainless steel, it provides strong resistance to corrosion and high-pressure conditions, with a maximum working pressure rating of 10,900 psi. The fitting connects a compression end to a 1/8 inch FNPT end, making it well suited for instrumentation, pneumatic, and fluid-handling lines where a reliable, leak-resistant connection between tubing and a threaded female port is required. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and instrumentation technicians are the primary installers of this type of fitting.

This connector is used in applications where compression tubing must terminate at or connect through a female NPT-threaded fitting. Common install scenarios include instrument tubing runs, hydraulic sensing lines, chemical feed systems, and industrial process piping where both corrosion resistance and high working pressure capability are critical. Its straight profile keeps the flow path direct and the installation compact, fitting into tight plumbing or panel configurations found in commercial and industrial settings.

Key Features

• Stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in demanding fluid and gas service
• Maximum working pressure of 10,900 psi for high-pressure instrumentation and hydraulic applications
• Straight fitting shape maintains a direct, inline flow path
• 1/8 inch FPT thread standard on the FNPT end for broad threaded-port compatibility
• Compression x FNPT end configuration transitions tubing to a female-threaded port in one fitting

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation compression connector for systems requiring a 1/8 inch FNPT to compression tubing transition in stainless steel service.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed pipefitter, plumber, or instrumentation technician following applicable codes such as the IPC or relevant ASME B31 piping standards. Depressurize and isolate the line fully before removing any existing fitting or installing this connector. Do not overtighten the compression nut, as stainless steel ferrules can gall; hand-snug plus the manufacturer-recommended fractional turn is the correct procedure. Verify the mating female NPT port thread condition before installation to ensure a leak-free seal.
