It provides a secure, leak-resistant mechanical connection without requiring flare preparation, making it a practical choice for pneumatic and fluid-line assemblies. The connector is rated to 400 psi maximum working pressure and handles temperatures from -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F. Fabricated from brass, it meets D.O.T. FMVSS571.106 and SAE J246 standards, confirming suitability for regulated transport and fluid-system applications. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and fluid-system mechanics install this type of fitting where a quick, reliable compression-to-threaded transition is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis connector is suited for use in hydraulic, pneumatic, and fluid-transfer lines found in both mobile and stationary equipment. The compression x MNPT end configuration makes it a common choice for connecting copper or nylon tubing to NPT-ported valves, manifolds, or equipment housings. Its 1\/2-14 NPTF thread size is a standard dimension seen in a wide range of plumbing and mechanical fluid-system builds, including air brake systems and other D.O.T.-governed assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompression x MNPT end connections for tubing-to-threaded-port transitions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction for corrosion resistance and machinability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e400 psi maximum working pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOperating temperature range: -65 degrees F to 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets D.O.T.

Depressurize and isolate the line fully before disassembling any existing fitting or installing this connector. Ensure the compression nut and ferrule are seated squarely on the tubing before tightening to avoid leaks or tube deformation. Follow applicable system codes and equipment manufacturer torque guidance when threading into NPT ports.\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: 1\/2-14 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: 0.408 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.
