Value Collection -10744-3 Push-to-connect Nptf Fitting

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION -10744-3 is a push-to-connect tube fitting configured as a tube-to-male tube-to-male NPTF connection. It accepts 1/8-inch outside diameter tubing on both tube ends and features a 1/8-27 National Pipe Taper Fuel (NPTF) thread for the male threaded connection. This fitting is designed for use in pneumatic, hydraulic, or fluid transfer plumbing assemblies where a secure, leak-resistant connection is required. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical technicians typically install these fittings in control line, instrument air, or low-pressure fluid system applications. The push-to-connect mechanism allows fast assembly without additional tools on the tube side.

This fitting suits light-duty pneumatic and instrumentation tubing runs in both residential and commercial mechanical systems. It is well suited for control tubing, small-bore instrument lines, and compressed-air distribution branches where a quick inline or directional connection to a male NPTF port is needed. Sold in packages of 10, it is a practical stock item for service vans and shop inventory handling small-bore fitting work.

Key Features

• Push-to-connect tube ends allow tool-free tube insertion for faster assembly
• 1/8-27 NPTF thread provides a pressure-tight, dry-seal threaded connection
• 1/8-inch OD tube compatibility for common small-bore control and instrument tubing
• Tube-to-male tube-to-male configuration supports inline or branch plumbing layouts
• Sold in a 10-piece package, convenient for stocking and repeat service calls

Compatibility

Designed as a standard push-to-connect NPTF tube fitting for small-bore pneumatic and fluid control tubing systems accepting 1/8-inch OD tube and 1/8-27 NPTF threaded ports.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by plumbers, pipefitters, or qualified mechanical technicians. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before disconnecting or inserting any fitting. Ensure tubing ends are cut square and deburred before insertion into the push-to-connect port to guarantee a proper seal. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the NPTF male threads as required by the application and verify the connection is rated for the system operating pressure before returning the system to service.
