Parker 68VL-2-2 Compression Tube Connector 1/8-27 Mnpt

Product Description

The PARKER 68VL-2-2 is a brass compression tube connector designed to join tubing to a male NPT threaded port in fluid and pneumatic line systems. It features a Vibra-Lok compression style end, which creates a secure, vibration-resistant seal without requiring tube flaring or soldering. The fitting is rated to 600 psi maximum working pressure and carries a 1/8-27 thread size on the MNPT end. Rated for service from -30 degrees F to 275 degrees F, it suits a wide range of temperature environments. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and fluid-system installers are the typical trades that work with this fitting.

The 68VL-2-2 is suited for use in hydraulic, pneumatic, and fluid transfer lines where a compression-to-male NPT transition is needed. The Vibra-Lok compression style makes it a practical choice in installations where vibration from equipment or line pressure pulses could compromise conventional fittings. It is appropriate for both residential and light commercial applications where brass fittings and NPT threading are standard, and where compliance with ISO 6149 and SAE J1926 standards is required.

• Compliant with ISO 6149 and SAE J1926 standards
• Operating range from -30 degrees F to 275 degrees F

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression-to-MNPT connector for fluid and pneumatic line systems requiring a 1/8-27 NPT threaded port connection with a Vibra-Lok compression tube end.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified HVAC and fluid-system technicians. Shut off and depressurize the line completely before removing or installing any fitting. Ensure tubing is cut cleanly and squarely and is free of burrs before inserting into the compression end. Follow applicable codes including ASME B31 piping standards where relevant, and do not exceed the rated working pressure of the fitting.
