Manufactured from 316-grade stainless steel, this fitting meets a broad set of material and dimensional standards, making it appropriate for demanding fluid and gas line applications where corrosion resistance and pressure integrity are required. With an overall length of 1.93 inches, it is a compact, direct-connection fitting. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial maintenance technicians are the typical installers for this type of compression-to-NPT fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis connector is suited for use in residential and commercial plumbing, process piping, instrumentation lines, and HVAC refrigerant or fluid circuits where a transition from compression tube to a male NPT threaded port is needed. The compression end accepts 1\/2-inch OD tubing, while the male NPT end threads directly into a female-threaded port or valve body. It is a single-piece, no-weld connection option for lines requiring a secure, leak-resistant joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e316 stainless steel construction provides excellent corrosion and oxidation resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompression x MNPT end configuration allows tool-free tube insertion with a wrench-tightened compression nut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2-inch tube OD inlet paired with 1\/2-inch male NPT outlet for direct port connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverall length of 1.93 inches keeps the fitting profile compact in tight 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\u003eSwagelok-equivalent configuration referenced as SS-810-1-8 for cross-reference purposes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style compression-to-male-NPT fitting for 1\/2-inch OD tubing applications in plumbing, instrumentation, and fluid system installations where a standard NPT threaded port connection is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC or facility piping codes. Shut off and depressurize the line completely before disassembling or installing any compression fitting. Use two wrenches when tightening the NPT end into the receiving port to avoid twisting the tubing or downstream components. Do not overtighten the compression nut, as excessive force can deform the ferrule and compromise the seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 316\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\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.93 inches\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\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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-FT8-MN8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51716354769202,"sku":"SS-MC-FT8-MN8","price":42.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/bf40b6def115b1baf9a4c02b1b483c1d.jpg?v=1788524776","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-ss-mc-ft8-mn8-compression-male-connector","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
