Will this tee work with nylon tubing or is it only for metal?

Question by: Rod Y on Jan 25, 2026, 11:03 AM
Trying to figure out if this tee will hook up to my quarter-inch copper line and still give me a standard NPT thread on the branch port, is that right?
Answer by: Customer Support on Jan 26, 2026, 12:03 PM
Both of those things check out. The run side accepts 0.25 inch OD tubing, which covers plastic, copper, and aluminum, and the branch port is a 1/4-18 male NPT thread. So if your existing line is quarter-inch copper and the port you're threading into is a standard female NPT, this fitting connects both without any adapters in between.
