This Anderson Metals short flare nut compression tube fitting is made of brass, connects to a flared tube or fitting, 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 fitting connects to a flared tube or fitting and can be used with copper, brass, aluminum, or steel tubing. It is part of an assembly that resists mechanical pullout for a more secure connection, and can be assembled and reassembled without affecting the seal. This short flare nut compression tube fitting has an operating temperature range of -65 to +250 degrees F and is suitable for use with fuel and gas systems, plumbing, refrigeration, and vacuum applications.
Tube fittings are components used for connecting, branching, terminating, and changing the direction of tubing in pneumatic and hydraulic systems. They are made of brass, stainless steel, PBT (polybutylene terephthalate), and other materials that resist corrosion and wear. Tube fittings have various types of connections, including threaded, welded, barbed, and push-to-connect (also called one-touch). Push-to-connect connections do not require tools or sealants. Tube fittings are used in various applications, including machine tools, airplane and truck controls, and automated production lines, among others.
Anderson Metals manufactures brass fittings, valves, and pipe nipples. The company, founded in 1951, is headquartered in Kansas City, MO.

Used this on my Ford 3600 power steering tubing. I used single flare but think it was designed for double flare. Finally tighned down on a single flare.

Description clearly states 10 pieces but only received 1. Two weeks later and still haven't responded to my email. Way overpriced for 1 item. Buyer Beware!

I had to flare 1/4 copper tube to install a new lamp head on my old natural gas post. Using a inexpensive Flaring Tool Kit I bought here on Amazon, I used 1/4 copper tube and this fitting. It worked like a charm and was a prefect fit.

Cost way more than expected but it was also hard to find. It let me finish my job and worked fine.

It is a high-quality part.However, please note that the photograph is poor and does not show that the end is open. It is not an end cap. It is intended to be used as a coupling for flare-end tubing.
