Parker 62CA-10-6 Compression Tube Union Brass

Product Description

The PARKER 62CA-10-6 is a brass compression tube union designed to join two compression-end tube runs in a single inline connection. It accepts compression fittings on both ends, creating a leak-resistant mechanical joint without soldering or specialized tooling. Built from brass, this union is suited for use in plumbing, HVAC refrigerant piping, pneumatic control lines, and instrumentation tubing systems. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians install this fitting wherever an inline union is required to connect, extend, or service a compression-tube circuit. Its rated temperature range of -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F supports both low-temperature refrigeration and standard hot-water or steam-adjacent applications.

This union fitting is commonly installed in residential and light commercial plumbing systems, HVAC control tubing, and pneumatic or instrumentation lines where a compression-style connection is preferred. It is used in situations where the technician needs to join two tube ends of matching size without a permanent brazed or soldered joint, allowing future disassembly and service access. The compression x compression end configuration makes it adaptable for copper, aluminum, or compatible soft-metal tubing runs.

Key Features

• Brass construction provides corrosion resistance and mechanical durability in plumbing and HVAC environments
• Compression x compression end connections eliminate the need for soldering or brazing during installation
• Rated operating temperature range from -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F
• Inline union design allows future disassembly for service or tube replacement
• Single-piece package quantity supports individual repair and maintenance work orders

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard compression union for residential and commercial tubing systems using compression-style fittings on both connection ends.

Installation Notes

This fitting is typically installed by licensed plumbers or HVAC technicians. Shut off fluid or gas supply and relieve system pressure completely before removing or installing any compression fitting. Hand-tighten the compression nuts first, then advance with a wrench according to the tube material and nut size — avoid over-tightening, which can deform the ferrule and cause leaks. Verify the joint is leak-free under operating pressure before returning the system to service.
