Quarter-Inch Copper Adapter
The NIBCO 6032 connects a quarter-inch copper tube to a quarter-inch female NPT thread in air, gas or potable-water systems. It is sized for a tube outer diameter of three-eighths inch and rated for 729 psi at 200 degrees Fahrenheit. Installers needing a straight sweat-to-thread transition use this fitting.
Pressure And Temperature Headroom
The adapter holds 729 psi at 200 degrees Fahrenheit and withstands continuous temperatures up to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. This range covers typical residential and light-commercial plumbing loads. Systems that exceed either limit require a different fitting class.
Wrot Copper Construction
The wrot copper body provides corrosion resistance and allows direct soldering to the tube end without additional couplings. No gaskets, sealants or special tools are bundled; the installer supplies flux, solder and a torch. The straight shape keeps the joint compact in tight runs.

How can I verify the joint is holding at the rated 729 psi?
Pressurise the system and check for leaks; the adapter is rated for 729 psi at 200 °F and 400 °F maximum temperature.
Does the 6032 adapter come with any sealant or solder?
