Parker PT-00386 Ss Flared Tube Sleeve 1/4 in Od 37 Deg

Product Description

The PARKER PT-00386 is a stainless steel flared tube sleeve designed for use in high-pressure hydraulic and fluid system connections. It accepts 1/4 inch tube OD and forms a 37-degree flare angle at the end connection. At 0.41 inches in overall length and weighing 0.01 pounds, this sleeve is a compact, precision component used to reinforce tube ends before assembly into JIC-style flared fittings. Rated for working pressures up to 7500 psi and a temperature range of -425 degrees F to 1200 degrees F, this sleeve suits demanding fluid transfer applications in HVAC, refrigeration, and industrial systems. Licensed trade technicians and pipefitters are the primary installers.

This sleeve is suited for high-pressure tubing assemblies where a reinforced flare end is required. It is commonly used in refrigeration lines, hydraulic circuits, and industrial fluid transfer systems where stainless steel corrosion resistance and wide temperature tolerance are required. The 37-degree flare angle conforms to JIC and SAE J514 standards, making it compatible with standard flared fitting assemblies used in commercial and industrial installations.

Key Features

• Stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance across a wide range of fluids and environments
• 37-degree flare angle meets ISO 8434-2, SAE 070115, and SAE J514 standards
• Working pressure rating up to 7500 psi for high-pressure fluid system applications
• Operating temperature range from -425 degrees F to 1200 degrees F
• 1/4 inch tube OD sizing for common small-bore tubing applications
• Compact overall length of 0.41 inches for tight-clearance installations

Compatibility

Designed for use with 1/4 inch OD tubing requiring a 37-degree JIC-style flare end connection, conforming to ISO 8434-2, SAE 070115, and SAE J514 standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified pipefitter, HVAC technician, or hydraulic systems technician. De-pressurize and isolate the fluid circuit completely before disassembling any tubing connections. The sleeve is slipped over the tube end prior to flaring and must be seated correctly before the flare is formed to ensure a leak-free joint. Follow applicable SAE and ISO standards for flaring procedures and fitting torque specifications.
