Parker 6-6-6 Sbz-ss Compression Male Branch Tee 3/8 in Ss

Product Description

The PARKER 6-6-6 SBZ-SS is a compression tube male branch tee fitting manufactured in stainless steel. It provides a three-way split in a tubing run, with two compression ends and one male NPT (MNPT) threaded end. This fitting handles a maximum working pressure of 6,600 psi, making it suitable for high-pressure fluid and gas service lines. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians typically install this type of fitting in instrumentation, refrigeration, and process piping systems where leak-tight connections and corrosion resistance are required.

This fitting is suited for both commercial and industrial applications where stainless steel construction is specified for corrosion resistance or cleanliness requirements. The male branch tee configuration allows a branch takeoff from a main compression tubing run while also accommodating a threaded port connection. Typical use cases include instrument tubing manifolds, chemical process lines, and high-pressure pneumatic or hydraulic circuits. The 3/8-inch tube outside diameter sizing is a common dimension across a wide range of trade and industrial installations.

Key Features

• Stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in demanding service environments
• Maximum working pressure of 6,600 psi for high-pressure applications
• 3/8-inch tube outside diameter compression ends accept standard instrumentation tubing
• Male NPT branch port integrates threaded connections directly into the tee configuration
• Compression x Compression x MNPT end configuration reduces need for additional adapters

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install fitting for high-pressure compression tube systems using 3/8-inch outside diameter tubing with male NPT branch connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified pipefitter, plumber, or instrumentation technician familiar with compression fitting assembly procedures. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before disassembly or installation. Compression fittings must be assembled to the correct ferrule-seating torque per the fitting manufacturer's guidelines — do not over-torque. Verify thread compatibility and sealant requirements for the MNPT port per applicable piping codes before pressurizing the system.
