It features a 45-degree flare end on one side and a male NPTF (National Pipe Taper Fuel) thread on the other, with a thread size of 3\/8-18. The fitting accepts 1\/2-inch OD tubing and is rated for up to 750 psi working pressure and 250 degrees F. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pipefitters install this connector when transitioning between flared tubing and pipe-threaded ports in fuel, refrigerant-adjacent, or hydraulic line assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis connector is suited for residential and light commercial applications where copper or other compatible tubing connects to a threaded port on valves, manifolds, or equipment housings. The NPTF thread standard provides a pressure-tight seal through thread-form interference, reducing reliance on sealants. At 1.6 inches overall length and 0.11 pounds, it installs in tight spaces without adding significant bulk to the line assembly. Technicians working on fuel gas lines, oil burner piping, or similar systems will find this fitting meets SAE J512 and SAE J513 dimensional standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e45-degree flare end conforms to SAE J512 and SAE J513 standards for dimensional consistency\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNPTF thread delivers a pressure-tight connection through thread interference without requiring tape or compound on every installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 750 psi maximum working pressure for high-demand fluid and pneumatic service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction resists corrosion in fuel, water, and compatible hydraulic media\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUL Listed for added installation confidence in code-governed applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact 1.6-inch overall length suits installations with limited clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style flare fitting for use with 1\/2-inch OD tubing and 3\/8-18 NPTF male pipe thread ports in fluid and pneumatic distribution systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLicensed plumbers and HVAC technicians should depressurize and isolate the line before removing or installing any flare fitting. Ensure the tubing end is cut square, deburred, and properly flared to 45 degrees before seating the connector. NPTF threads are designed to seal on the threads themselves; inspect threads for damage before assembly and apply sealant only if required by the system manufacturer or applicable code. Follow IFGC or applicable local codes when installing in gas or fuel service.\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\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flare x MNPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlared Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 45 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube OD\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-18\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: 750 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: 1.6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.11 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: SAE J512, SAE J513, UL Listing\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-8-6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51543528964402,"sku":"48F-8-6","price":21.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f196ee368af2e1377998422272aa4ec4.jpg?v=1785919919","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-48f-8-6-brass-flared-tube-connector-1-2-in-od","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
