It features a 3\/8-18 NPTF thread and a compression x FNPT end connection configuration. Rated to 400 psi maximum working pressure, the connector handles operating temperatures from -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F. Constructed from brass, it provides reliable corrosion resistance for use in hydraulic, pneumatic, and fluid transfer applications. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and fluid system mechanics install this fitting in both residential and commercial service environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis connector is suited for applications requiring a secure, leak-resistant transition from compression tubing to a female NPT port. It meets D.O.T. FMVSS571.106 and SAE J246 standards, making it appropriate for use in regulated fluid and brake line systems where compliance is required. The 0.408-inch inside diameter accommodates standard tubing sizes compatible with the 3\/8-18 thread specification. Typical install scenarios include compressed air systems, fuel lines, and hydraulic control circuits in both mobile and stationary equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction for corrosion resistance in fluid and pneumatic systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompression x FNPT end connections for reliable tube-to-port transition\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 400 psi maximum working pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWide temperature range: -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets D.O.T.

Always depressurize and isolate the line before removing or installing any compression fitting. Apply thread sealant appropriate for the service medium on NPTF threads and ensure the compression sleeve and nut are properly seated before pressurizing. Verify that the connected tubing meets the pressure and temperature ratings of this fitting before returning the system to service.\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\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\u003eInside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.408 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: D.O.T.
