Parker 362PTC-8 Push-to-connect Union 1/2 Inch Od

Product Description

The PARKER 362PTC-8 is a push-to-connect union tube fitting designed for quick, tool-free connections in fluid and pneumatic distribution systems. Constructed with a brass body, Buna-N seals, and nylon components, it accepts 1/2-inch OD tubing and is rated to 250 psi maximum working pressure. The union configuration allows in-line connections between two tube runs without threading or soldering. This fitting is installed by plumbers, HVAC technicians, and industrial maintenance trades where fast, reliable tube connections are required and where system service or disconnection may be needed in the field.

The 362PTC-8 is suited for use in residential and light commercial plumbing, pneumatic control lines, and fluid distribution applications. Its push-to-connect design reduces installation time on both new construction and retrofit work. The fitting is appropriate for systems carrying water, air, or compatible fluids within its rated pressure range. It is packaged individually and ships as a single-unit quantity.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified HVAC technicians. Depressurize and drain the system fully before servicing any tubing or fittings. Ensure tubing is cut cleanly and squarely with a tube cutter and that the tube end is free of burrs before insertion. Verify tube OD and system pressure rating before placing the fitting in service.
