It features three ports: a 1\/8 inch male pipe thread (MPT) inlet, a 1\/4 inch OD compression fitting connection, and a 1\/8 inch female pipe thread (FPT) gauge port. The all-brass construction resists corrosion in wet plumbing and pump system environments. This fitting is commonly installed by licensed plumbers and pump service technicians wherever a gauge tap is needed in a compact, mixed-connection assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 168c-4-2 is suited for residential and light commercial pump systems, pressure boosting assemblies, and plumbing applications where a gauge read-off point must be introduced into a line that transitions between threaded pipe and compression tubing. The tee format allows in-line gauge monitoring without breaking the primary flow path, making it a practical choice for service and diagnostic installations on water systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass body provides corrosion resistance for wet plumbing and pump applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/8 inch MPT inlet for direct threaded pipe connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch OD compression port accommodates standard soft copper or poly tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/8 inch FPT gauge port accepts standard pressure gauge fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact tee geometry suits tight installation spaces in pump assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for small-bore pump and plumbing pressure gauge installations requiring a mixed-thread and compression tee configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pump technician. Shut off system pressure and drain the line before removing or installing any fittings. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to all threaded connections per IPC guidelines. Do not overtighten compression fittings; seat the ferrule by hand and snug with a wrench without excessive force.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inch MPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompression Port\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch OD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGauge Port\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inch FPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Gauge Tee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: PEERLESS PUMP\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 168c-4-2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PEERLESS PUMP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233437450546,"sku":"168C-4-2","price":41.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/peerless-pump-168c-4-2-brass-gauge-tee-1-8-mpt-1-4-od-1-8-fpt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
