Compression unions create a secure, leak-resistant connection without soldering or brazing, making them a practical choice for refrigerant lines, potable water supply lines, and other fluid-handling systems. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians install this type of fitting where a removable, re-serviceable joint is needed and open flame work is not permitted or practical.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis compression union is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing and HVAC applications where dissimilar tube sizes must be joined in a single inline connection. Typical installation scenarios include connecting copper or compatible tubing runs during system assembly or repair, particularly in tight spaces where soldered fittings are impractical. The reducer configuration accommodates a transition from 3\/8 inch to 1\/2 inch tubing in one fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduces from 3\/8 inch to 1\/2 inch in a single inline compression union\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo soldering or brazing required for installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRe-serviceable connection allows disassembly and reassembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact union design for in-line tube joins with access from both ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style compression union for use with 3\/8 inch and 1\/2 inch outside-diameter tubing in residential and light commercial plumbing or HVAC systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local codes, including IPC guidelines for plumbing connections. Shut off and depressurize the supply line before disassembling or installing any compression fitting. Hand-tighten the compression nut before applying a wrench to avoid cross-threading, and do not overtighten, as this can damage the compression ferrule and compromise the seal. Inspect ferrules for deformation before reuse.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Size 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Size 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Compression union\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: USD PRODUCTS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 62-R-86\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"USD PRODUCTS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67581993353522,"sku":"62-R-86","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/937c93272d83019eaaa0729c73d5a699.jpg?v=1790411565","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/usd-products-62-r-86-compression-union-3-8-x-1-2-inch","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
