Description
Overview
The 3/8 x 1/2 NPTF female connector connects 3/8-inch outside-diameter nylon air-brake tubing to a 1/2 NPTF male-threaded port. The straight brass body keeps the tubing aligned, while the larger female port distinguishes this version from smaller-threaded connectors.
Features
- Push-to-connect collet accepts 3/8-inch OD imperial nylon tube.
- Internal 1/2 NPTF thread mates with a matching male pipe connection.
- Brass hex body for tightening.
- Integrated tube support, gripping collet and O-ring seal.
Specifications and Materials
The complete fitting includes its retained release collet, tube support and internal seals. The push-in connection needs no separate compression nut or olive.
Part number: DQ66DOT0608.

Compatibility and Fitment
Measure the tube outside diameter, not its internal bore. Select this 3/8 x 1/2 NPTF female connector for a 1/2 NPTF male thread. Do not substitute a 1/2-inch tube connector or a 1/2 BSP threaded fitting. Tube size and thread size are independent selection checks.

Compliance and Safety

Trailer Applications
