1/4" Flare Connection Multi Angle (FCMA1400) - SmartLock Flare Connection Fitting
Connect 1/4" copper or aluminum tubes to flare valves at multiple angles-37.5° or 45°-without flaring or brazing. SmartLock FCMA1400 uses patented metal-to-metal sealing technology for permanent, zero-leak joints under any pressure or temperature. Standard wrenches align and tighten components automatically, reducing install time.
What's in the Box (pre-assembled)
- One SmartLock FCMA1400 fitting body
- Two union nuts
- Two ferrules
- One positioning strip
Key Features
- No flaring required. Tighten nuts to seal tubes to flare valves without heat or flame.
- Multiple-angle compatibility. Designed for use with 37.5° and 45° flare valves for flexible routing.
- Automatic alignment. Positioning strip holds ferrules and body in alignment for smooth assembly.
- Metal-to-metal seal. Compression ferrules deform to seal under high pressure for lasting, leak-free joints.
- Over-torque prevention. Built-in stops prevent nuts from overtightening and damaging the fitting.
- Corrosion-resistant finish.
Compatibility
- Works with all common refrigerants, including R-410A, R-22, R-134a, R-744, R-717 and A2L blends.
- Suitable for copper-to-copper, copper-to-aluminum and aluminum-to-aluminum tube connections.
Installation & Tools
- Tools needed. Standard open-end or adjustable wrenches only.
- Installation tip. Hand-start nuts on tube and valve, then wrench-torque until the fitting's torque stop engages.
