Parker FBMT-662 Compression Male Branch Tee 3/8 in

Product Description

The PARKER FBMT-662 is a compression tube male branch tee designed for fluid handling and instrumentation tubing systems. This fitting connects a branch line to a main tube run while providing a male threaded port for inline connections. It is manufactured from Perfluoroalkoxy (PFA) and Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) plastic materials, making it well suited for high-purity, chemical-resistant, and corrosive fluid applications. The compression grip style allows for a secure, leak-resistant connection without soldering or welding. It accepts tubing with a 3/8 inch outside diameter. This type of fitting is typically installed by plumbers, process technicians, and instrumentation specialists working with tubing systems in laboratory, semiconductor, chemical processing, and industrial environments.

The FBMT-662 is designed for use in applications where chemical compatibility and purity are critical. PFA and PTFE materials provide excellent resistance to a broad range of aggressive chemicals, solvents, and high-purity fluids. This branch tee is appropriate for low-pressure fluid distribution lines, analytical instrumentation, and process piping where metallic fittings are unsuitable due to contamination or corrosion concerns. It is commonly installed in residential laboratory setups and light industrial process systems requiring a tee configuration with a male branch port.

Key Features

• Compression grip design allows tool-assisted, no-solder tube connections
• Male branch tee configuration supports three-way flow splitting with a threaded branch outlet
• Accepts 3/8 inch outside diameter tubing
• Plastic grip type reduces risk of contamination in sensitive fluid systems
• Sold individually — package quantity of 1

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression fitting for tubing systems using 3/8 inch outside diameter tube, typically in chemical processing, laboratory, and instrumentation applications where PFA or PTFE material compatibility is required.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified plumber or instrumentation technician familiar with compression-style plastic fittings. Shut off all fluid flow and depressurize the line before disassembly or installation. Hand-tighten compression fittings carefully, then use appropriate tools to avoid over-torquing, which can crack PFA and PTFE components. Verify all connections are leak-free before returning the system to service.
