Parker BD-LG1015 Stem Adapter 3/16 Od 1/4 Mnpt 290 Psi

Product Description

The PARKER BD-LG1015 is a push-to-connect stem adapter fitting that transitions a 3/16 inch OD tube to a 1/4 inch male NPT threaded port. The body is nickel-plated brass, rated for a maximum working pressure of 290 psi. The push-to-connect end accepts the tube without tools — insert the tube and the internal collet grips and seals automatically. This fitting is installed by HVAC technicians, plumbers, and fluid system mechanics wherever a quick, reliable tube-to-threaded-port connection is needed in pneumatic or liquid lines.

The BD-LG1015 suits residential and light commercial applications in pneumatic control lines, condensate systems, refrigeration ancillary circuits, and other fluid or air lines running 3/16 inch OD tubing. The fitting is rated for service from 5 degrees F to 155 degrees F, making it appropriate for indoor mechanical room environments and conditioned-space installations. It is sold in packages of 10, which suits service contractors stocking multiple fittings for recurring repair work.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, or qualified mechanics. Depressurize and drain the line completely before removing any existing fitting. Ensure the 1/4 inch NPT male threads are wrapped with thread sealant tape per applicable plumbing or mechanical codes before threading into the receiving port. Insert tubing squarely into the push-to-connect end until it seats fully against the internal stop; to release, depress the collet ring while withdrawing the tube.
