Parker 60NTA-6 Compression Tube Sleeve Brass 3/8 Inch

Product Description

The PARKER 60NTA-6 is a brass compression tube sleeve designed to create a secure, leak-resistant connection in compression-style tube fittings. The sleeve seats against the fitting body during assembly, providing the mechanical seal that holds the tubing in place under pressure. Rated to 150 psi maximum working pressure and suitable for temperatures ranging from -40 degrees F to 200 degrees F, this sleeve is built to perform in demanding fluid and gas line applications. It is machined from brass for corrosion resistance and dimensional consistency. The 3/8 inch tube outside diameter sizing makes it a standard component in many hydraulic, pneumatic, and fluid transfer assemblies across multiple trades.

This compression sleeve is used in residential and light commercial applications where compression-style tube fittings are specified. Typical installations include hydraulic brake lines, fuel lines, and other tubing systems requiring DOT-compliant components. It meets D.O.T. FMVSS571.106, SAE J1131, and SAE J246 standards, making it appropriate for automotive and mobile equipment fluid line service as well as general industrial tubing work. Plumbers, hydraulic technicians, and fleet maintenance professionals commonly work with this fitting component.

Key Features

• Brass construction provides corrosion resistance and consistent machined dimensions
• Compression end connection for tool-accessible, reliable tube seating
• Rated to 150 psi maximum working pressure
• Wide temperature range: -40 degrees F to 200 degrees F
• Meets D.O.T. FMVSS571.106, SAE J1131, and SAE J246 standards
• Fits 3/8 inch outside diameter tubing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service component for compression tube fitting assemblies requiring a 3/8 inch OD sleeve in brass, where D.O.T. FMVSS571.106, SAE J1131, or SAE J246 compliance is required.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by plumbers, hydraulic technicians, or qualified mechanical tradespeople. Before servicing any line, depressurize and isolate the system completely. Ensure the tubing end is cut square and deburred before inserting the sleeve to prevent leaks or sleeve damage. Do not over-tighten the fitting nut, as compression sleeves are designed to seat at a specific torque range per the fitting manufacturer's instructions.
