got some 1/2 inch OD plastic tubing on a little air setup, is this sleeve the right deal or do i need to flare the tube first
Answer by: Customer Support on Dec 31, 2025, 8:29 PM
No flaring is required with this style. You cut the tubing to length, slide the nut and then the sleeve onto the tube, and tighten per the usual compression fitting guidelines. It is intended for instrumentation hydraulic and pneumatic systems and is made to work with plastic, copper, and aluminum tubing.

How much pressure can this sleeve handle?
Answer by: Customer Support on Sep 6, 2025, 9:45 AM
These brass compression sleeves can handle working pressures up to 2000 psi, but that does depend on the size of the tubing you're using it with. There's also a 4:1 safety factor built in.
