Parker 6-12 Fbz-ss Compression Tube Connector 3/4 in Ss

Product Description

The PARKER 6-12 FBZ-SS is a compression-to-male NPT tube connector machined from stainless steel. It creates a leak-tight union between a compression tube end and a male NPT threaded port, making it suitable for instrumentation, fluid transfer, and pneumatic lines where corrosion resistance and pressure integrity are critical. With a maximum working pressure of 6600 psi, this fitting handles demanding process and industrial service conditions. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and instrumentation technicians are the typical installers. The 1.88-inch overall length keeps the assembly compact in tight panel or manifold installations.

This connector is used in applications requiring a transition from compression tubing to a male NPT threaded component. Common install scenarios include hydraulic instrumentation lines, high-pressure pneumatic systems, chemical process plumbing, and OEM equipment assemblies. Its stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for corrosive-media environments and outdoor or wet locations where carbon steel fittings would degrade. The 3/4-inch thread size suits mid-range tubing and port configurations frequently encountered in industrial and commercial mechanical systems.

Key Features

• Stainless steel construction resists corrosion in harsh fluid and gas service
• Compression x MNPT end connections provide a tool-assisted, leak-tight seal without soldering or welding
• 6600 psi maximum working pressure rated for high-pressure instrumentation and process lines
• 3/4-inch male NPT thread conforms to standard MPT thread specifications
• 1.88-inch overall length supports compact plumbing layouts

Compatibility

Designed for use in compression tube systems with 3/4-inch male NPT threaded ports across industrial, commercial, and instrumentation plumbing applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed pipefitters, plumbers, or instrumentation technicians following applicable IPC or ASME B31 piping codes. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before removing or installing any fitting. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male NPT threads before make-up; do not apply sealant to the compression end. Tighten the compression nut to manufacturer-recommended finger-tight-plus turns using two wrenches to prevent body rotation and tubing distortion.
