Parker PT-00815 Flareless Bite-type Tube Union Tee 8mm

Product Description

The PARKER PT-00815 is a flareless bite-type tube union tee designed for connecting three tube runs at a single junction point without requiring flared tube ends. The fitting uses a compression-style bite action to grip the tube wall and create a secure, leak-resistant seal. With an 8 mm outside diameter tube connection, this union tee suits hydraulic, pneumatic, and fluid transfer lines common in commercial and industrial installations. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and fluid-systems mechanics are the typical tradespeople who install this type of fitting. The bite-type design eliminates the need for a flaring tool, reducing installation time and the risk of flare defects.

This union tee is suited for applications where three lines of 8 mm OD tubing must be joined inline, such as instrument air distribution, hydraulic control circuits, refrigeration pilot lines, and process fluid manifolds. It is appropriate for both new installations and retrofit work where an additional branch connection is needed on an existing tube run. The fitting is packaged in quantities of five, making it practical for multi-point installations or stocking purposes.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with flareless compression fittings. Depressurize and isolate the system completely before removing or installing any tube fitting. Ensure tube ends are cut square and deburred before inserting into the fitting body, as burrs or angled cuts can compromise the bite-type seal. Follow the fitting manufacturer's torque and turns-past-finger-tight guidelines per applicable hydraulic or pneumatic system codes.
