Product Questions & Answers (2)

Question by: Roger R on Jan 3, 2026, 5:04 PM
Will this fitting hold up ok if I use it for a propane line on my BBQ pit?
Answer by: Customer Support on Jan 5, 2026, 3:03 PM
It's made from brass which offers good corrosion resistance. Just be sure to order the special-order version, as the standard adapter is only rated for LP and natural gas, not general flammable liquids.
Question by: Dwight M on Sep 13, 2025, 1:26 PM
Does this fitting work for refrigeration lines, or is it strictly a hydraulic thing?
Answer by: Customer Support on Sep 15, 2025, 6:15 AM
Refrigeration is actually one of the listed applications for this adapter, right alongside hydraulic and pneumatic systems. It also covers LP and natural gas instrumentation and power steering setups, so it crosses into quite a few different trades. The brass construction holds up well against corrosion in those kinds of environments, and the 45-degree elbow angle helps when you need to route lines around tight spaces without forcing a hard bend in the tubing.
