Parker 6-6-4 Sbz-ss Compression Male Branch Tee 1/4 in Ss

Product Description

The PARKER 6-6-4 SBZ-SS is a compression tube male branch tee fitting designed for high-pressure fluid and pneumatic line applications. Constructed from stainless steel, this fitting connects two compression tube ends to a male NPT threaded port, allowing a branch takeoff from a main compression tube run. It carries a maximum working pressure of 6600 psi, making it suitable for demanding service environments. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and industrial piping mechanics install this type of fitting where a reliable, leak-resistant branch connection is required without the need for soldering or brazing.

This fitting is used in residential and commercial plumbing, instrumentation, HVAC refrigeration lines, and hydraulic or pneumatic control systems where a branch tee off a main compression tube is needed. The 1/4 inch MNPT port threads into a female NPT receiving fitting or manifold, while the two compression ends grip and seal onto compatible tubing. It is well suited for close-quarters installations where tool access is limited and a fast, repeatable connection is preferred.

Key Features

• Stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet, chemical, and high-cycle service environments
• Maximum working pressure of 6600 psi supports high-pressure instrumentation and hydraulic applications
• Dual compression ends provide a secure, tool-free tube grip without brazing or soldering
• 1/4 inch MNPT outlet allows direct threading into standard female NPT ports or manifolds
• Compact male branch tee geometry enables branch takeoffs within tight panel or rack installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation compression fitting for systems using 1/4 inch MNPT threaded connections and compatible compression tube sizes in high-pressure fluid or pneumatic service.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified plumber, pipefitter, or instrumentation technician familiar with compression fittings and NPT thread practices. De-pressurize and isolate the line completely before disassembly or fitting installation. Apply an appropriate thread sealant to the MNPT threads per the applicable plumbing or mechanical code, and tighten compression nuts to snug plus the manufacturer-recommended fraction of a turn without over-torquing. Verify all connections are leak-free under system pressure before returning the line to service.
