Description
Overview:
The Brass Tube Coupling 3/16" (approx. 4.76 mm) is a straight in-line compression connector for joining equal-size brass tubes securely. Made from solid brass for durability and corrosion resistance, it uses stepped olives to improve sealing and grip, helping to achieve a reliable, leak-tight joint without soldering. This fitting is suited to fluid and air lines in plumbing runs on equipment and installations found around construction sites, workshops, and gardens, including items like small water pumps and pressure washers. Precision-machined to suit 3/16" (4.76 mm) outside diameter brass tube, it supports neat, compact routing where space is limited. Identified by MPN 615 227, it is a practical choice for tradespeople and DIY users who need a straightforward, dependable coupling.
Key Features:
- Solid brass construction resists corrosion for long service life
- Stepped olives enhance sealing, especially on thin-wall brass tube
- Accurate 3/16" (4.76 mm) sizing for a snug, reliable fit
- Straight in-line design keeps pipe runs compact and tidy
- Compression joint requires no heat, solder, or special tools
- Simple to install with standard spanners for reduced downtime
- Suitable for water, air, and non-aggressive fluids in general plumbing
- Firm mechanical grip helps resist vibration and minor movement
- Clean internal bore supports consistent flow and minimal pressure drop
- Fits neatly into confined assemblies on site and garden machinery
Typical Applications:
Joining 3/16" (4.76 mm) brass tube in general plumbing lines, instrument and gauge connections, and service runs on workshop and site equipment. Useful for small water and coolant circuits, air feeds, and low to moderate pressure utility lines on tools such as compact pumps, pressure washers, and generator ancillaries, as well as garden setups where robust brass fittings are preferred.
