It features a compression end on one side and a 1\/8-27 MNPT thread on the other, providing a reliable, leak-resistant mechanical connection without soldering or flaring. Rated to 400 psi maximum working pressure and suitable for temperatures ranging from -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F, this fitting is built to SAE J-512 standards. It is a common fitting used by plumbers, HVAC technicians, and fluid-system mechanics in both light industrial and trade applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis connector is suited for residential and light commercial installations where 1\/8-inch OD tubing must terminate at an NPT-threaded port on valves, manifolds, gauges, or equipment panels. The compression-by-MNPT configuration allows field assembly without special tooling beyond a standard wrench, making it practical for service calls and panel builds alike. It is commonly found in refrigeration lines, pneumatic control circuits, and instrumentation tubing runs where a removable, re-tightenable connection is preferred over a permanent joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompression x MNPT end configuration for tubing-to-threaded-port connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrass construction for corrosion resistance in fluid and pneumatic service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e400 psi maximum working pressure for reliable performance in low-to-medium pressure systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWide temperature range: -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets SAE J-512 standards for dimensional and performance compliance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/8-inch OD tube outside diameter with 1\/8-27 NPTF thread\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting compatible with 1\/8-inch OD tubing and 1\/8-27 MNPT-threaded ports in pneumatic, hydraulic, and fluid-transfer assemblies per SAE J-512.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, or instrumentation mechanics. Shut off and depressurize the system fully before removing or installing compression fittings. Use a backup wrench on the mating port to avoid stressing downstream components when tightening the MNPT thread. Do not overtighten the compression nut, as brass fittings can deform the ferrule; follow standard compression fitting practice for the tubing material in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\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 MNPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8-27\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 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: SAE J-512\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27121700\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 68C-2-2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542759571762,"sku":"68C-2-2","price":27.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c71b8f6206fa9d42d7d5c131c934269b.jpg?v=1785906520","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-68c-2-2-compression-tube-connector-1-8-27","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
