Value Collection PC100NB-4 Brass Pipe Fitting 1/4 in Fnpt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION PC100NB-4 is a brass pipe fitting with female NPT (FNPT) end connections on both ends, rated for service up to 1,000 psi. The body is finished in nickel plating, which provides corrosion resistance in demanding environments. Sized at 1/4 inch, this fitting is suited for use in compressed air, pneumatic control, water, and hydraulic lines where a reliable threaded female connection is required. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians commonly install this type of fitting during new construction, retrofit, and maintenance work on small-bore pipe systems.

This fitting is appropriate for residential and light commercial applications where 1/4 inch FNPT threaded connections are specified. Typical install scenarios include compressed air distribution manifolds, pneumatic controls, water supply lines, and instrument tubing connections. The 1,000 psi pressure rating makes it suitable for higher-pressure pneumatic and hydraulic systems commonly found in trade and industrial settings. It is sold individually and is a direct replacement option for standard 1/4 inch FNPT brass couplings in existing systems.

Key Features

• 1/4 inch FNPT connections on both ends for standard threaded pipe assembly
• 1,000 psi pressure rating supports pneumatic and hydraulic service
• Nickel-plated finish adds corrosion resistance over bare brass
• Brass construction provides good machinability and thread integrity
• Compact, lightweight design at 0.08 pounds for easy handling in tight spaces

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or new-installation fitting for any 1/4 inch FNPT threaded pipe system requiring a brass coupling with nickel-plated finish.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC or local mechanical code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the system fully before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe dope approved for the service fluid to the male threads before assembly. Do not overtighten, as this can crack the fitting body or damage threads.
