The fitting uses a 1\/4-18 NPTF thread on the pipe side and a compression connection on the tube side, creating a reliable, leak-resistant seal without soldering or flaring. Rated to 400 psi maximum working pressure, it handles service temperatures from -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F. Manufactured from brass, the 66AB-4-4 meets DOT FMVSS571.106 and SAE J246 standards, making it suitable for brake, fuel, and hydraulic line applications that require certified fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis connector is used in residential, commercial, and mobile equipment plumbing and pneumatic systems where a compression tube must terminate at a female NPT port. Typical installations include refrigeration and HVAC copper tubing connections, automotive and truck brake line assemblies, compressed air distribution lines, and hydraulic control circuits. The 1\/4-18 thread size is a common size in light-duty fluid power and gas distribution systems. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and fleet maintenance technicians routinely work with this fitting type in both new construction and retrofit applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompression x FNPT end connections allow tool-accessible, no-solder tube-to-pipe joining\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction provides corrosion resistance for water, air, and compatible fluid service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e400 psi maximum working pressure rated for demanding fluid and pneumatic lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWide service temperature range: -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets DOT FMVSS571.106 and SAE J246 standards for certified brake and fuel line use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-18 NPTF thread ensures a pressure-tight mechanical seal at the pipe connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install compression connector for systems using 1\/4-18 NPTF female ports with compression tube connections, including brake, fuel, hydraulic, and pneumatic line assemblies that require DOT and SAE J246 certified fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber, HVAC technician, or qualified mechanic following applicable codes such as IFGC, IPC, or DOT brake system regulations. Shut off and depressurize the line fully before disassembling or installing any compression fitting. Do not over-tighten the compression nut, as brass fittings are susceptible to deformation of the ferrule seat. Inspect the tube end for squareness and burrs before seating the ferrule to ensure a proper seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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\/4-18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.188 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 400 psi\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\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: DOT FMVSS571.106, SAE J246\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 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-4-4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542912794930,"sku":"66AB-4-4","price":18.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a9c641575beb0dcee631521fb80442d0.jpg?v=1785910744","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-66ab-4-4-compression-tube-connector-1-4-18-nptf","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
