Description

This Anderson Metals Brass Fitting, 3/8″ x 3/8″ Male Pipe provides a half union compression tube fitting. The fitting has a flared tube connection and a male NPT connection and is suitable for use with fuel and gas systems. It is made of brass for corrosion resistance, ductility at high temperatures, and low magnetic permeability. Connect this fitting with copper, brass, aluminum, or steel tubing to connect and disconnect two tubes more easily than with a coupling. It has a flared tube connection on one end and a male National Pipe Taper (NPT) connection on the other for connecting to a female NPT threaded tube. Therefore, it creates a tighter seal than straight threads.

This fitting is part of an assembly that resists mechanical pull-out for a more secure connection. Use and reassemble without affecting the seal. This half union compression tube fitting has an operating temperature range of -65 to +250 degrees F and is suitable for use with fuel and gas systems, plumbing, refrigeration, and vacuum applications.

Tube fittings are components used for connecting, branching, terminating, and changing the direction of tubing in pneumatic and hydraulic systems. They are made of brass, stainless steel, PBT (polybutylene terephthalate), and other materials that resist corrosion and wear. Tube fittings also have various types of connections, including threaded, welded, barbed, and push-to-connect (also called one-touch).

Anderson Metals manufactures brass fittings, valves, and pipe nipples. The company was founded in 1951 and remains headquartered in Kansas City, MO.
