It features a 37-degree flare angle with Flare x MNPTF end connections, conforming to SAE J514 and ISO 8434-2 standards. Rated for a maximum dynamic working pressure of 6000 psi and a maximum working temperature of 500 degrees F, this fitting is built for demanding industrial, HVAC, and fluid-power applications. The branch tee configuration allows one inline port and one branch port to share a single male NPT threaded outlet, making it a practical solution for system branch-offs without additional fittings. Plumbers, pipefitters, and fluid-system technicians are the primary installers of this type of fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is suited for use in hydraulic lines, refrigeration systems, fuel systems, and other pressurized tubing assemblies where a 37-degree flare connection to a male NPTF thread is required. The 1\/2-inch tube OD and 1\/2-inch NPTF thread sizing are common in both light industrial and commercial fluid-power installations. Its steel construction and compliance with SAE 070425 and ISO 8434-2 make it appropriate for environments with elevated temperatures and pressures. It ships individually and can be ordered in single-unit quantities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e37-degree flare angle with Flare x MNPTF end connections per SAE J514\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum dynamic working pressure of 6000 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 500 degrees F maximum working temperature\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel construction for durability in high-pressure fluid systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompliant with ISO 8434-2, SAE 070425, and SAE J514 standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOverall length of 2.66 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for pressurized tubing systems requiring a 37-degree flare male branch tee with 1\/2-inch tube OD and 1\/2-inch NPTF thread connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified pipefitter, hydraulic technician, or licensed plumber. Always depressurize and drain the system before removing or installing any fittings. NPTF threads are designed for dry-seal connections, but verify whether thread sealant is required per the system manufacturer's guidance and applicable codes. Do not overtighten flare connections, as this can damage the sealing surface and compromise pressure integrity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMax Working Pressure (Dynamic)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6000 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMax Working Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 500 degrees F (260 degrees C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.66 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube OD\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlared Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 37 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flare x MNPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISO 8434-2, SAE 070425, SAE J514\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 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: 8-8-8 STX-S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542226108722,"sku":"8-8-8 STX-S","price":64.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/2c36ab1019e4a509d2fd075fdcc85420_56a3b771-fbdf-4feb-9352-01703c57d92e.jpg?v=1785895666","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-8-8-8-stx-s-steel-male-branch-tee-1-2-in-flare","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
