SAE 45-degree flared tube ends. Machined from stainless steel, it brings superior corrosion and chemical resistance to flare connections that brass cannot handle, making it suited to marine, chemical, and high-temperature service. Each end seats a 45-degree flared tube for a metal-to-metal seal; the thread is 5\/8-18.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part #\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10108SS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSAE 45° Flare Union\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConnection 1\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3\/8 in.
