Constructed from brass, this fitting accepts tubing with an inside diameter of 0.17 inches and an outside diameter of 0.25 inches. The barbed design provides mechanical retention during the soldering process, keeping the tube positively seated before and during heat application. It is well suited for HVAC, refrigeration, and plumbing applications where copper or compatible soft tubing is joined by soldering. Installation is typically performed by licensed HVAC technicians or plumbers working on low-pressure line sets and fluid circuits.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis connector is used in residential and light commercial systems where small-diameter tubing connections are required. It is appropriate for applications involving refrigerant piping, condensate lines, or fluid transfer circuits that call for a soldered brass fitting. The single-piece barbed solder connector simplifies assembly by combining mechanical bite retention with a brazed or soldered permanent seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrass construction provides corrosion resistance and compatibility with copper tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBarbed design holds tubing in place during soldering for consistent joint alignment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInside diameter of 0.17 inches accommodates small-bore tubing applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutside diameter of 0.25 inches for standard quarter-inch tubing fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact, lightweight form factor at 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for small-diameter copper or compatible soft tubing assemblies requiring a soldered brass barbed connector.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified HVAC technician or licensed plumber. Shut off all system pressure and depressurize the line before cutting or connecting tubing. Clean and flux all mating surfaces per standard soldering practice before applying heat. Follow applicable mechanical and plumbing codes, including IFGC and IPC guidelines, when working on pressurized fluid or refrigerant systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Barbed Tube Solder Connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.17 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 238-4-4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51538281431346,"sku":"238-4-4","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1b3627a3c482fd66f6c856a624867c7f.jpg?v=1785821667","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-238-4-4-barbed-tube-solder-connector","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
