Pro-source 2558014465PRO Push-to-connect Tube Fitting 1/4in

Product Description

The PRO-SOURCE 2558014465PRO is a push-to-connect tube fitting with a female NPT port, designed for inline tubing connections in plumbing, HVAC, and compressed-air systems. The fitting accepts 1/4 inch OD tubing on each tube end and a 1/4 inch NPTF female thread at the center port. The body is nickel-plated brass, rated to 250 psi maximum working pressure and a temperature range of 0 degrees F to 160 degrees F. The Buna o-ring seals the tube connections for leak-free performance on compressed air and water lines. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pneumatic system installers typically work with this fitting.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a tube run must tee into a female-threaded port or where an inline branch connection is needed. It handles both compressed air and water service within its rated pressure and temperature limits. The push-to-connect design allows fast assembly without tools, making it a practical choice for tight spaces or retrofit work on existing tubing runs where soldering or flare fittings are not practical.

Compatibility

Designed for use with 1/4 inch OD tubing on compressed air and water systems. Accepts 1/4 inch NPTF female-threaded connections. Not rated for fuel gas, refrigerant, or steam service.

Installation Notes

Shut off and depressurize the system before installing or removing push-to-connect fittings. Ensure tubing ends are cut square and free of burrs before insertion to seat the o-ring properly. Apply thread sealant to the NPTF port per the fitting manufacturer guidance and applicable IPC or IFGC requirements for the service type. To release tubing, depress the collet ring evenly while pulling the tube straight out.
