Pro-source 2559012363PRO Push-to-connect Tube Stem Fitting

Product Description

The PRO-SOURCE 2559012363PRO is a push-to-connect tube to stem tube fitting designed for fast, tool-free connections in compressed air and water systems. Constructed from nickel-plated brass, this fitting accepts tubing with a 3/8 inch outside diameter and connects to a stem with a 1/2 inch outside diameter. It is rated for a maximum working pressure of 250 psi and handles temperatures from 0 degrees F to 160 degrees F. The Buna O-ring seals the connection reliably under pressure. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of fitting in light industrial, commercial, and residential piping assemblies where quick assembly and disassembly are required.

This fitting is suited for compressed air distribution lines and water service applications. The push-to-connect design allows tubing to seat and lock without threaded tools, reducing installation time on production runs or service calls. The nickel-plated brass body resists corrosion in typical air and water service environments. This fitting ships in a package quantity of 3, making it practical for multi-point installations or keeping spares on hand.

Installation Notes

Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically install push-to-connect fittings in accordance with applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC. Depressurize and drain the line completely before removing or installing any fitting. Ensure tubing is cut cleanly and squarely and deburred before insertion to achieve a proper seal. To release the tube, depress the collet ring evenly before pulling the tubing free.
