It features a compression end on one side and a female NPT (FNPT) end on the other, making it a reliable choice for instrumentation, fluid control, and process piping applications where a leak-tight mechanical connection is required. Rated to 6300 psi maximum working pressure and capable of handling temperatures from -425 degrees F to 1200 degrees F, this fitting is built for demanding service conditions. It is typically installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, or instrumentation technicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis connector is suited for residential and commercial applications involving gas, hydraulic, or process fluid lines where a compression-to-NPT transition is needed. Its 316 stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for corrosive environments, high-pressure systems, and lines carrying aggressive media. The 1\/4-18 NPT thread size is a standard trade dimension found across a wide range of valves, gauges, and instrument fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e316 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in harsh service environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 6300 psi maximum working pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWide temperature range: -425 degrees F to 1200 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompression x FNPT end connections for tube-to-threaded-port transitions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-18 NPT thread standard for broad compatibility with instrumentation fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-piece package quantity suitable for individual replacement or new installation\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 compression tube-to-FNPT connections in high-pressure instrumentation, process piping, and fluid control systems using 1\/4-18 NPT threaded ports.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a licensed pipefitter, plumber, or instrumentation technician. Shut down and depressurize the system fully before removing or installing any compression fitting. Apply thread sealant appropriate for the media and pressure rating to the NPT threads per IPC or IFGC guidelines. Do not over-tighten the compression nut, as stainless ferrules require a precise number of turns from finger-tight to achieve a proper seal without damaging the tubing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel (316)\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: 1\/4-18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6300 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1200 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: -425 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1742 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: 8FSC4N-316\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51539858882866,"sku":"8FSC4N-316","price":63.43,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9790811c8a34cb6cb493953b216b9a7d_b6963b2d-31b4-47c7-be8e-40401eb604d0.jpg?v=1785844575","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-8fsc4n-316-compression-tube-connector-1-4-18-npt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
