It joins 5\/8 inch OD tubing using a 37-degree flare seat on one end and an NPTF threaded end on the other, providing a reliable metal-to-metal seal. The NPTF thread form creates a dry-seal connection that minimizes the need for additional thread sealant. This type of fitting is commonly installed by plumbers, HVAC technicians, and industrial pipefitters working on fuel, oil, refrigerant, or hydraulic lines where a compact, durable connector is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis connector is suited for residential and light commercial applications involving tubing systems that require a transition from a flared tube end to an NPTF threaded port. Typical install scenarios include fuel line assemblies, hydraulic systems, and refrigerant line connections where 37-degree JIC-style flare fittings are specified. The fitting is sold in a package quantity of two, making it practical for jobs requiring matched pairs or a spare on hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e37-degree flare angle conforms to JIC and SAE flare fitting standards for secure metal-to-metal seating\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNPTF dry-seal thread reduces the risk of fluid leakage at the threaded end without relying solely on sealant tape\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/8 inch tube OD sizing fits standard tubing used in fuel, hydraulic, and refrigeration line work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel construction provides durability under pressure and temperature cycling typical of mechanical system service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePackage quantity of two supports paired installations or provides a backup fitting on the job\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 fluid line assemblies requiring a 5\/8 inch OD, 37-degree flare-to-NPTF connector in steel construction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified plumber, HVAC technician, or pipefitter familiar with flared tube fittings and NPTF thread connections. Shut off and depressurize the line fully before disassembly or fitting installation. Inspect the flare seat and tube end for burrs or damage before making up the connection, as surface defects will compromise the metal-to-metal seal. Consult applicable codes such as IFGC or ASME B31 for system-specific pressure and material requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube OD\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlared Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 37 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flare x NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27121707\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: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: C34181\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51697614750002,"sku":"C34181","price":16.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1387a1cbc85e69f037e155e448d18e22_5b642cf0-4d6d-4b4a-9f97-18eface92526.jpg?v=1788353445","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-c34181-steel-flared-tube-connector","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
