Parker 6-1 Hbz-ss Compression Tube Union Stainless Steel

Product Description

The PARKER 6-1 HBZ-SS is a stainless steel compression tube union designed to join two compression-end tube lines in a single inline fitting. It accepts compression connections on both ends, creating a secure, leak-resistant joint without welding or soldering. Rated to a maximum working pressure of 6600 psi, this fitting is built for demanding fluid and gas handling applications where pressure integrity and corrosion resistance are critical. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and instrumentation professionals typically install this fitting in tubing runs where a reliable, reusable mechanical connection is required.

This compression union is suited for residential and commercial installations involving copper, stainless, or compatible tubing systems. It is commonly used in refrigeration lines, hydraulic instrumentation, pneumatic controls, and process fluid systems. The all-stainless construction makes it appropriate for corrosive environments, high-purity applications, and installations where long-term durability under elevated pressure is required.

Key Features

• Maximum working pressure of 6600 psi for high-pressure fluid and gas service
• Stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in harsh or high-purity environments
• Compression x Compression end connections on both ends allow tool-assisted, no-solder installation
• Inline union design enables straight tube-to-tube joining in tight routing scenarios
• Compact and lightweight at 0.081 pounds for easy handling in confined spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression tube union for use in instrumentation, refrigeration, hydraulic, and pneumatic tubing systems requiring compression-style end connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with compression fitting assembly practices. Always depressurize and isolate the tubing system before beginning work. Hand-tighten the compression nut onto the fitting body before applying the additional turns specified by the fitting manufacturer using a calibrated wrench. Do not overtighten, as excessive torque can deform the ferrule and compromise the seal.
