Rated to 400 psi maximum working pressure and suitable for service across a temperature range of -65 to 250 degrees F, this fitting handles demanding fluid and pneumatic line applications. Constructed from brass, it meets D.O.T. FMVSS571.106 and SAE J246 standards, making it appropriate for both vehicular brake and hydraulic system work. The 3\/8-18 NPTF thread provides a pressure-tight mechanical seal without thread sealant compounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis connector is used in hydraulic, pneumatic, and fluid transfer systems where a compression tube must transition to a male NPT threaded port. Typical applications include brake lines, fuel systems, air lines, and other fluid-handling assemblies in commercial vehicles, mobile equipment, and industrial machinery. The D.O.T. compliance designation makes it suitable for regulated vehicular applications. Licensed plumbers, hydraulic technicians, and fleet maintenance professionals install this fitting in both shop and field environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction provides corrosion resistance in fluid and pneumatic service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e400 psi maximum working pressure rated for demanding hydraulic and pneumatic lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOperating temperature range of -65 to 250 degrees F suits a wide range of service conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompression x MNPT end connections allow transition from tube to threaded port without welding or flaring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompliant with D.O.T.

Depressurize and drain the system completely before removing or installing any fitting. Use appropriate tube preparation tools to ensure a clean, square tube cut and proper ferrule seating at the compression end. Follow NPTF thread engagement practices and verify the assembly is leak-free before returning the system to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connections\u003c\/strong\u003e: Compression x MNPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1890 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 400 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: -65 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: D.O.T.
