The fitting transitions from a compression-style tube connection on one end to a 1\/4-18 FNPT threaded connection on the other, providing a leak-tight, bite-type mechanical seal without the need for solder or flare tooling. Rated to 8,100 psi maximum working pressure, it handles temperatures from -425 degrees F to 1,200 degrees F, making it suitable for cryogenic, steam, hydraulic, and instrumentation applications. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and instrumentation technicians are the typical installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis connector is suited for use in commercial and industrial installations where tubing must interface with NPT-threaded components such as valves, manifolds, pressure gauges, or instrumentation fittings. Its 316 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in aggressive media including acids, chlorides, and high-purity process fluids. It is commonly found in process piping, pneumatic control lines, refrigeration instrumentation, and hydraulic test circuits where reliable tube-to-pipe connections are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum working pressure of 8,100 psi for demanding high-pressure service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating temperature range of -425 degrees F to 1,200 degrees F covers cryogenic through high-heat applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e316 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in aggressive or high-purity media\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompression x FNPT end connections for tool-accessible, leak-tight tube-to-pipe transitions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/4-18 NPT thread standard for broad compatibility with standard instrumentation and process components\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact, single-piece fitting with no solder or flare preparation required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style compression-to-FNPT connector for use with compatible outside-diameter tubing in systems with 1\/4-18 NPT-threaded female ports. Verify tubing outside diameter compatibility with the compression ferrule specification before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, or instrumentation technicians following applicable codes such as ASME B31.1, B31.3, or facility-specific process piping standards. Depressurize and isolate the system completely before disassembling or installing any compression fitting. Hand-tighten the compression nut onto the FNPT port, then advance with a wrench per the fitting manufacturer's turn count guidance for the ferrule type. Do not overtighten, as this can deform the ferrule and compromise the seal integrity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: Stainless Steel (316)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connections\u003c\/strong\u003e: Compression x FNPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8,100 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1,200 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: -425 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.106 pounds\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: 5FSC4N-316\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51543085809970,"sku":"5FSC4N-316","price":101.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9790811c8a34cb6cb493953b216b9a7d_f9a62717-998d-4193-8971-ed2ecbd949ae.jpg?v=1785915204","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-5fsc4n-316-compression-tube-connector-1-4-18-npt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
