Parker 8SC8-B Compression Tube Union Brass

Product Description

The PARKER 8SC8-B is a brass compression tube union designed to join two compression-end tube lines in a single inline fitting. It provides a leak-resistant, tool-assisted connection rated for up to 2200 psi working pressure. Machined from brass meeting ASME-SB75 and ASTM-B75 standards, this union is built for systems where pressure integrity and material compatibility with copper or brass tubing are required. The overall installed length is 2.02 inches. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians use this fitting in instrumentation, refrigeration, and fluid-transfer applications where a union connection is needed for serviceability.

This compression union is suited for residential and light commercial systems that use copper or compatible tubing. It is appropriate for gas, hydraulic, and fluid-line applications within its rated pressure range. The compression-by-compression end configuration allows field assembly without soldering or threading, making it a practical choice for retrofits, repairs, and new installations where tube union access is needed for future service disconnection.

Key Features

• Compression x compression end connections for tool-assisted, solder-free assembly
• Rated to 2200 psi maximum working pressure
• Brass construction conforming to ASME-SB75 and ASTM-B75 standards
• Overall length of 2.02 inches for compact inline installation
• Union design allows future disconnection and reconnection without cutting tubing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression tube union for use in systems requiring ASME-SB75 and ASTM-B75 compliant brass fittings with compression-by-compression connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or qualified HVAC technician. Depressurize and isolate the system completely before disassembling or installing any compression fitting. Ensure tubing ends are cut square, deburred, and free of contamination before inserting into the compression seats. Follow applicable codes including ASME and ASTM guidelines relevant to the system type and fluid service.
