It features a 37-degree flare angle on both ends, conforming to the standard JIC flare geometry used widely in hydraulic, refrigeration, and instrumentation lines. Rated to a maximum working pressure of 6000 psi, this union is built for demanding service conditions. The all-steel construction provides durability under pressure cycling and vibration. HVAC technicians, plumbers, and hydraulic system installers use this fitting when a reliable, leak-resistant union is required in metal tubing runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is suited for residential and commercial applications where 5\/16-inch OD tubing must be joined with a reusable, pressure-rated flare connection. Typical install scenarios include refrigerant line repairs, hydraulic circuit assembly, and instrument tubing connections where a union allows future disassembly without cutting the line. The flare-by-flare end configuration means both mating tubes must be flared to the 37-degree JIC standard before assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e37-degree flare angle on both ends, compatible with standard JIC flare tooling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum working pressure of 6000 psi for high-pressure service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlare x flare end connection allows union joining of two flared tube ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll-steel construction for strength under pressure cycling and vibration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccepts 5\/16-inch OD tubing on both sides\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for systems using 5\/16-inch OD tubing with 37-degree flare connections, including hydraulic, refrigeration, and instrumentation plumbing circuits.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with flared tube fitting assembly. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before disconnecting or installing any fittings. Both tube ends must be properly flared to a 37-degree angle using an appropriate flaring tool before assembly. Overtightening flare nuts can crack the flare seat and cause leaks; snug the nut to seat the flare, then advance only as needed per standard trade practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Union\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flare x Flare\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlared Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 37 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure (Dynamic)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6000 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27121707\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: 5 ETX-S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51544550342962,"sku":"5 ETX-S","price":20.08,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/fa07661bfabb15c8b74e22a37b7f455b_4f606667-0083-4817-815f-ff8d41a7f659.jpg?v=1785929592","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-5-etx-s-steel-flared-tube-union-5-16-in-6000-psi","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
