It features a tube-by-FNPT-by-tube connection configuration, allowing a 1\/2 inch OD tube to thread directly into a 1\/4 inch NPTF female port using a push-to-connect mechanism on each tube end. Rated to 250 psi maximum working pressure and tested across a temperature range of -40 degrees F to 200 degrees F, this fitting is built for demanding service environments. The nitrile O-ring construction provides a reliable seal under pressure. Licensed HVAC and refrigeration technicians, plumbers, and fleet brake system mechanics are the typical installers of this component.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is rated and certified as a DOT air brake fitting, meeting D.O.T. FMVSS571.106, SAE J2494, and SAE J2494-3 standards. It is suited for use in commercial vehicle air brake systems, compressed air lines, and pneumatic control circuits where a secure tube-to-female-thread connection is required. The compact overall length of 0.88 inches and 7\/8 inch hex size make it practical for tight installation spaces. Both residential and commercial pneumatic plumbing applications are within scope, though DOT air brake compliance makes it especially relevant to fleet and heavy-duty vehicle service environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePush-to-connect tube ends accept 1\/2 inch OD tubing without tools for fast, secure connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch NPTF female center port ensures a pressure-tight threaded interface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated to 250 psi maximum working pressure for reliable use in air brake and pneumatic systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrass body construction provides corrosion resistance and durability in air and fluid service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNitrile O-ring seals maintain integrity across -40 degrees F to 200 degrees F operating range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCertified to D.O.T.

Verify that the mating tube OD and thread specifications match before installation. NPTF threads are self-sealing by design, but inspect threads for damage before torquing. This fitting should be installed by a qualified mechanic or technician familiar with DOT air brake system requirements and applicable SAE and FMVSS standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tube x FNPT x Tube x Female\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHex Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 250 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.88 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Working Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: -40 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 200 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eO-Ring Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Nitrile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: D.O.T.
