Constructed from 316 stainless steel, this fitting meets ASTM A276, ASTM A479, and ASTM A182 standards, making it suitable for demanding fluid and gas line applications where corrosion resistance is required. With an overall length of 1.49 inches, it provides a compact inline connection. The compression end creates a leak-tight seal on the tube without threading, while the MNPT end threads directly into a female NPT port. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically install these fittings in instrumentation and process piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis connector is used in residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC refrigerant instrumentation lines, compressed air systems, and process piping where stainless steel corrosion resistance is required. The compression-by-male-NPT configuration makes it well suited for connecting tubing runs to valves, gauges, manifolds, or other threaded components. It is commonly specified in installations that require compliance with ASTM or DIN material standards for tubing fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e316 stainless steel construction for excellent corrosion resistance in wet and chemical environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompression x MNPT end connections for tool-friendly tube-to-threaded-port transitions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFits 1\/4-inch OD tubing with 1\/4-inch male NPT thread on the opposite end\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOverall length of 1.49 inches for compact inline installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ASTM A182, ASTM A213, ASTM A269, ASTM A276, ASTM A479, DIN EN10122-5, and DIN EN10272 standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNPT thread standard for compatibility with standard North American pipe thread fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style compression tube male connector for use with 1\/4-inch OD tubing and 1\/4-inch female NPT threaded ports in plumbing, HVAC instrumentation, and process piping applications.

Depressurize and isolate the line before disassembly or installation. Tighten the compression nut to the manufacturer-specified method for compression fittings — do not overtighten, as this can deform the ferrule and compromise the seal. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the MNPT threads before making up the joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: 316 Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connections\u003c\/strong\u003e: Compression x MNPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.49 inches (37.85 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM A182, ASTM A213, ASTM A269, ASTM A276, ASTM A479, DIN EN10122-5, DIN EN10272\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27121700\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: SS-MC-FT4-MN4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51705866060082,"sku":"SS-MC-FT4-MN4","price":26.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1134a59e5264b018caa94a7b30c66ab5.jpg?v=1788431555","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-ss-mc-ft4-mn4-compression-male-connector","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
