The fitting accepts a 1\/2 inch compression connection on one end and a 1\/2 inch FNPT threaded connection on the other, providing a secure, leak-resistant transition between tubing and pipe threads. Constructed from brass to ASTM-B-453 and ASTM-B16 standards, it carries a maximum working pressure of 2300 psi. The overall length is 1.73 inches and the unit weighs 0.21 pounds. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and industrial pipefitters install this type of fitting in refrigeration, instrumentation, and fluid control applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis connector is suited for residential and light commercial systems where tubing must terminate at a threaded female port. Common install scenarios include instrument tubing runs, refrigerant piping accessories, and process fluid lines where a reliable compression-to-pipe-thread transition is required. The straight body geometry keeps the connection inline, minimizing flow restriction. The brass construction resists corrosion in water, refrigerant, and many industrial fluid services.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompression x FNPT end connections for tubing-to-pipe-thread transitions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum working pressure rated at 2300 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrass construction meeting ASTM-B-453 and ASTM-B16 standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight fitting shape keeps connections inline\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverall length of 1.73 inches for compact installation in tight spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold individually — package quantity of 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use compression tube connector for systems requiring a 1\/2 inch compression to 1\/2 inch FNPT straight fitting in brass.

Shut off and depressurize the system fully before disconnecting or installing any compression fitting. Compression fittings require proper tube preparation — ensure tubing is cut square and deburred before insertion. Follow applicable codes such as the IPC or IFGC for fluid and gas piping installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connections\u003c\/strong\u003e: Compression x FNPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: FPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2300 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.73 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.21 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM-B-453, ASTM-B16\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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 GBZ-B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540366950706,"sku":"6-8 GBZ-B","price":43.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7ba58195a91f0feb99e42e31abd95354_7aa549f4-6cab-434b-833f-caba276ff2e7.jpg?v=1785853522","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-6-8-gbz-b-compression-x-fnpt-brass-connector","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
