45° Flared Fittings for Copper and Brass Tubing
- Temperature Range: -65° to 250° F
- Tubing: Use with seamless brass and copper that meets ASTM B280
No sleeve is required to assemble these fittings, which makes for a faster, more convenient installation compared to 37° flared fittings. They require a nut (sold separately) for each tube end. Fittings are also known as refrigeration and SAE fittings. They are brass for good corrosion resistance.
NPTF (Dryseal) threads are compatible with NPT threads.
Copper tube size is the accepted designation of the copper tubing industry, not the actual tube OD.

- For Use With: Air, Cutting Oil, Diesel Fuel, Fuel Oil, Mineral Oil, Refrigerant, Water; except adapters for 1/8" and 1" tube OD are not for use with fuel oil
- Specifications Met: See table

Nuts for Barbed Hose Fittings for Compressed Gas
Also known as CGA (Compressed Gas Association) nuts, these are designed for low-pressure welding applications downstream of your tank and pressure regulator. Slide a barbed hose adapter for compressed gas into a male or female nut to make a threaded connection to torches or pressure regulators.
Nuts with left-hand threads are identified with a notch.
Brass nuts have good corrosion resistance. Note: Nuts have a CGA number that corresponds to a specific type of gas. Choose a nut with the same CGA number as your tank and other system components.

- Maximum Pressure: 200 psi @ 72° F
- Maximum Temperature: 120° F
Black-Phosphate Steel Key-Locking Inserts
A black-phosphate finish provides mild corrosion resistance. Drive the keys into the surrounding material for a more secure hold than thread-locking inserts. Use them to repair or change threads in soft metals such as aluminum. They’re comparable to Keensert® inserts. Installation requires a drill bit, a standard tap, an installation tool, and a hammer.
Choose inserts with a thick wall for greater strength than thin-wall inserts, or to fill a large hole with stripped threads.

Key-Locking Inserts with Installation Tool
Drive the keys into the surrounding material for a more secure hold than thread-locking inserts. These inserts are used to repair or convert threads in soft metals such as aluminum. They’re comparable to Keensert® inserts.
Black-phosphate steel inserts are mildly corrosion resistant.
Choose inserts with a thick wall for greater strength than thin-wall inserts, or to fill a large hole.

Left-Hand Threaded Tube-End Weld Nuts
Use these tube-end nuts with left-hand threaded fasteners. You can weld them to round uncoated metal tubes to attach threaded parts, such as rod ends. Also known as tube adapters and weldable threaded tube ends.
