Insert the line fully into the fitting body, then tighten the nut by hand until snug. Use a wrench to tighten an additional 1\/2 to 3\/4 turn to compress the ferrule and create a leak-proof seal. Do not overtighten, as this can crush the nylon line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is this fitting compatible with steel braided lines?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA:\u003c\/strong\u003e No, this specific compression fitting is designed exclusively for 3\/16\" nylon tubing.

Because the ferrule works by deforming (crushing) to create a seal, it will not provide a reliable, leak-free connection if reused.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What does the 1\/8\" NPT designation mean?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/8\" NPT refers to the National Pipe Taper thread size.
