Constructed from brass, this connector handles working pressures up to 400 psi and operates across a temperature range of -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F. The NPTF thread standard ensures a pressure-tight mechanical seal without relying solely on thread sealant. This fitting is suited for plumbing, HVAC, refrigeration, and fluid-system applications where a reliable compression-to-female-NPT transition is required. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and fluid-systems mechanics are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis connector is used in residential and light commercial applications involving tubing runs that terminate at a female NPT port on valves, manifolds, gauges, or equipment panels. The compression end grips the tube mechanically, making it appropriate for copper or compatible soft-metal tubing. The 3\/8-18 NPTF thread size is a common port size found on a wide range of HVAC, plumbing, and instrumentation components, making this connector a standard transition fitting in those systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction for corrosion resistance in fluid and gas service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompression x FNPT end connections for tubing-to-threaded-port transitions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 400 psi maximum working pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWide service temperature range: -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNPTF thread standard provides a pressure-tight mechanical seal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-18 thread size fits common valves, manifolds, and equipment ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for compression tube connector applications using 3\/8-18 NPTF female ports in residential and commercial fluid or gas systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified HVAC technician. Depressurize and isolate the system before removing or installing any compression fittings. Use appropriate tube-cutting and deburring tools to ensure a clean, square tube end before seating the compression ferrule. Consult applicable plumbing codes, including IPC guidelines, for approved fitting materials and pressure ratings in your jurisdiction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Connector\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: 3\/8-18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 400 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.533 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: -65 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.23 pounds\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: 66AB-10-6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51539534741810,"sku":"66AB-10-6","price":46.37,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f95ce45866ad8743cf9d7be48e77b358.jpg?v=1785842577","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-66ab-10-6-compression-tube-connector-3-8-18-nptf","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
