  • Typical Application - LP and natural gas, flammable liquids, instrumentation, refrigeration, power steering, hydraulic and pneumatic systems.
  • Material - CA360 Brass for Barstock fittings.
  • Used With - Copper, brass, aluminum and steel hydraulic tubing that can be flared.
  • Conformance - Meets specifications and standards of ASA, ASME, SAE and MS (Military standards).
  • Temperature Range  -6F to +250F (-53C to +121C) range at maximum operating pressures.
  • Working Pressure Ranges - Temperature and type of tubing used are important factors.  However, the following table is a good guide for proper selection. Temperature 730F with copper tubing:

  • Vibration - Good resistance. Use a long nut when greater vibration resistance is required.
  • Assembly Instructions - 1) Cut tubing to desired length.  Make sure all burrs are removed and ends are cut square. 2) Slide nut on tube.  Threaded end “A” of nut must face out. 3) Flare end of tube with a 450 flaring tool. a.Measure flare diameter.

    b. Examine flare for excessive thin out. 4) Lubricate threads and assemble to fitting body.  Nut should be turned hand tight. 5) Tighten assembly with wrench until a solid feeling is encountered.  From that point, apply a one-sixth turn. Please note, do not over-torque as this may damage the fitting or split the tubing at the flare.
