5/8 UNION
- The "1562-10 5/8 Union Fitting designed for 5/8 inch OD (Outer Diameter) tubing, made of zinc nickel-plated steel, with a 7/8-14 thread, connecting two tubes for air or hydraulic applications, providing a strong, leak-free seal for demanding environments like instrumentation. It's a durable, easy-to-assemble connector for joining two pieces of 5/8" tubing.
Key Characteristics:

- Part Number Clue: While "1562-10" isn't a standard Parker code, it's similar to codes for Ferulok (e.g., 1562 series), indicating a bite-type fitting for steel/nickel tubing.
- Type: Union (connects two tubes).
- Size: For 5/8" Outside Diameter (OD) tubing.
- Material: Zinc Nickel-Plated Steel for corrosion resistance.
- Connection: Male Flareless Bite (CPI style), meaning it uses a single ferrule that bites into the tube for a secure seal.
- Thread: 7/8-14.
- Application: Air, hydraulic, instrumentation, process power, and instrumentation.
- Temperature: Wide range, from -65°F to 500°F.

- How it Works (Parker Ferulok/CPI Style):

You insert the 5/8" tube into the fitting body.
You hand-tighten the nut, and then give it a quarter turn with a wrench.
The ferrule (a spring-loaded ring) compresses onto the tube, creating a leak-tight seal against the fitting body.

In essence, it's a heavy-duty compression fitting for joining two lines of 5/8" OD tubing in tough industrial settings, known for its reliability and resistance to vibration.
