It features a 37-degree flare seat with a flare by male NPTF end configuration, providing a leak-resistant metal-to-metal seal. The connector accepts a 3\/8 inch tube OD on the flare end and a 1\/2 inch NPTF male thread on the port end. With a maximum working pressure of 6000 psi and a maximum working temperature of 500 degrees F, it is built for demanding industrial and fluid conveyance installations. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and fluid power technicians are the typical installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis connector is suited for use in hydraulic lines, fuel systems, lubrication circuits, and compressed air or pneumatic plumbing where a 37-degree flare fitting is specified. It conforms to ISO 8434-2, SAE 070102, and SAE J514 standards, making it appropriate for both OEM assembly and field repair work. The overall installed length of 1.69 inches fits compact manifold and tubing layouts without requiring additional adapters. Applications span industrial machinery, mobile hydraulics, and commercial fluid power systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e37-degree flare seat delivers a reliable metal-to-metal seal at up to 6000 psi working pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlare x MNPTF end configuration for direct connection from tubing to NPT-ported components\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel construction rated to 500 degrees F continuous service temperature\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ISO 8434-2, SAE 070102, and SAE J514 standards for fluid connector compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact overall length of 1.69 inches suits tight plumbing layouts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNPTF thread standard provides a dry-seal connection without sealant tape when properly torqued\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or field-service fitting for hydraulic, pneumatic, and fluid power tubing systems specifying a 37-degree flare connector with 3\/8 inch tube OD and 1\/2 inch NPTF male thread.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed pipefitter, hydraulic technician, or qualified fluid power mechanic. Depressurize and drain the system completely before removing any existing fittings. Inspect the tube flare for cracks or out-of-round deformation before assembly, as a damaged flare seat will not seal reliably at rated pressure. Refer to SAE J514 torque guidelines and applicable facility or OEM specifications when making up the connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube OD\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlared Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 37 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flare x MNPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMax Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6000 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMax Working Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 500 degrees F (260 degrees C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.69 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISO 8434-2, SAE 070102, SAE J514\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27121707\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 6-8 FTX-S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541248442674,"sku":"6-8 FTX-S","price":17.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0272d40fc8acc32bef0f273404bf314b.jpg?v=1785870744","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-6-8-ftx-s-steel-flared-tube-connector-3-8-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
