It features a 45-degree flare seat on the tube end and a male NPTF thread on the fitting end, conforming to SAE J512 and SAE J513 standards. Rated to 1,200 psi maximum working pressure and 250 degrees F, this connector handles the demands of both stationary and mobile fluid system applications. At 0.05 pounds and 1.32 inches overall length, it is a compact, single-piece fitting installed by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pipefitters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis connector is suited for residential and light commercial applications involving copper or brass flared tubing. Typical use cases include refrigerant line connections, fuel lines, hydraulic circuits, and compressed air systems where a 5\/16 inch OD tube must transition to a 1\/4-18 NPTF male threaded port. The Flare x MNPTF end configuration makes it a standard adapter in system assemblies requiring a dryseal threaded connection at one end and a flared tube seat at the other.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e45-degree flare seat conforms to SAE J512 and SAE J513 standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1,200 psi maximum working pressure for demanding fluid and refrigerant systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 250 degrees F maximum working temperature\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNPTF dryseal thread (1\/4-18) provides a pressure-tight connection without sealant tape in many applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact overall length of 1.32 inches for tight installation spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUL Listed for additional assurance in commercial and industrial installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 5\/16 inch OD flared tubing and 1\/4-18 NPTF male threaded ports in fluid, refrigerant, fuel, and compressed air systems requiring SAE J512 or SAE J513 compliant fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified plumber, HVAC technician, or pipefitter. Depressurize and evacuate the system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Ensure the tube end is properly flared to the correct 45-degree angle using a calibrated flaring tool before seating the fitting. NPTF dryseal threads are designed to seal on the threads themselves, but follow the system manufacturer and applicable code requirements regarding the use of thread sealant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube OD\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlared Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 45 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flare x MNPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-18\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1,200 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 250 degrees F (121 degrees C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: SAE J512, SAE J513, UL Listed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 48F-5-4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540120011058,"sku":"48F-5-4","price":29.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/028aa481ee54c836ad99fc0e2334e087.jpg?v=1785846191","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-48f-5-4-brass-flared-tube-connector-5-16-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
