Parker 62C-3 Compression Tube Union 3/8-24 Brass Sae J-512

Product Description

The PARKER 62C-3 is a brass compression tube union designed to join two compression-end tube lines in a single inline connection. It accepts a 3/8-24 inch thread size with compression fittings on both ends, making it a clean, tool-accessible solution for technicians working on refrigeration, hydraulic, or fuel line assemblies. Rated to 400 psi maximum working pressure and conforming to SAE J-512, this union is built for reliable sealing across a wide temperature range. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and hydraulic system installers are the primary trades that work with this fitting.

This fitting is suited for use in both residential and light commercial applications where compression-style tube connections are specified. Typical install scenarios include fuel delivery lines, hydraulic tubing runs, refrigerant line assemblies, and pneumatic systems that call for an SAE J-512-compliant union. The brass construction makes it compatible with copper and compatible soft tubing commonly found in these system types. It is sold individually but subject to a minimum order quantity of 5 units per order.

Key Features

• Rated to 400 psi maximum working pressure
• Wide service temperature range: -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F
• UNSPSC code 27121700 for procurement and catalog classification

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression tube union for systems requiring SAE J-512-compliant fittings with 3/8-24 inch thread and compression x compression end connections, including refrigeration, hydraulic, and fuel line assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, HVAC technician, or qualified hydraulic system technician. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before disassembling any existing fittings. Use the appropriate tube cutter and deburring tool to prepare tubing ends cleanly before seating the compression ferrule. Do not overtighten compression nuts, as brass fittings can deform if excessive force is applied.
