Parker 38050614 Push-to-connect Tube Fitting 1/4 in Npt

Product Description

The PARKER 38050614 is a push-to-connect tube fitting with a male NPT thread configuration, designed for quick, tool-free tube connections in fluid and pneumatic systems. Constructed from stainless steel, it handles working pressures up to 435 psi and uses an FKM O-ring for reliable sealing. The connection arrangement is Tube x MNPT x Tube x Male, allowing inline runs that transition to a threaded port. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and fluid-handling system installers use this fitting where stainless corrosion resistance and push-in convenience are both required.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial pneumatic, refrigeration-adjacent, or fluid-transfer plumbing applications where 6 mm outside-diameter tubing terminates at a male NPT port. The stainless steel body resists corrosion in wet or chemically active environments. The FKM O-ring sealing element performs across a wide temperature range, making it appropriate for systems handling aggressive or elevated-temperature media. Each package contains 2 fittings.

Key Features

• Stainless steel body provides corrosion resistance in demanding service environments
• Rated to 435 psi maximum working pressure
• FKM O-ring sealing element for compatibility with a range of fluid media and temperatures
• Male NPT thread end transitions tubing runs directly to threaded ports
• Sold in a package of 2 fittings per order

Compatibility

Designed for use with 6 mm outside-diameter tubing in push-to-connect pneumatic and fluid-handling systems requiring a male NPT threaded port transition. No specific model or system compatibility data was provided in the input.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers or mechanical contractors. Ensure the system is fully depressurized and drained before removing or installing any fitting. Tube ends should be cut cleanly and squarely, deburred, and fully seated into the push-connect collet to ensure a leak-free connection. Apply thread sealant to the NPT male threads per local plumbing code requirements before making up the threaded joint.
