About this item

  • Union for connecting and disconnecting two tubes more easily than with a coupling
  • Compression tube connections on both ends
  • Brass for corrosion resistance, ductility at high temperatures, and low magnetic permeability
  • Three piece construction - nut, sleeve and body
  • These fittings contain lead and are not allowed by federal law to be installed for potable water use in the U.S.A. and its territories.


This compression union is made of brass, has compression connections, 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. This union connects two tubes in a straight run. It has a compression connection on both ends for connecting unthreaded tube. Tightening the nut against the sleeve creates a compression seal against leaks, and loosening the nut allows disassembly of the joined parts. This three-piece construction fitting – nut, sleeve, and body – can be used with copper, brass, aluminum, or plastic tubing and has an operating temperature range of -65 to +250 degrees F. This union compression tube fitting is suitable for use with fuel and gas systems, plumbing, refrigeration, and vacuum applications.

I needed to adapt 1/4 metal tubing to 5/16 heavy wall nylon clutch hydraulic line for an engine swap project. This was the easiest, most elegant way of connecting the two. I was worried it would not hold the high pressures expected in a hydraulic system like this but it seems to be holding fine so far!
