The GRACO 104172 is a tube fitting designed to connect 1/4 inch outer diameter (OD) tubing to a 1/8 inch National Pipe Thread (NPT) male port. Its material is not explicitly specified in available sources, but GRACO fittings are typically constructed from durable metals or engineered plastics for reliable performance. This fitting is intended for use in air or water systems within GRACO equipment, facilitating secure and leak-free connections between tubing and threaded ports.

Key Features:

• Tube fitting
• 1/8 NPT(M) x 1/4 OD tube
• Compatible with 1/4 inch OD tubing and 1/8 inch NPT(M) ports
• Secure connection for air or water lines
• Compact size for tight spaces
• Reliable performance in industrial environments

Applications:
Used in air or water systems for connecting tubing to threaded ports in GRACO equipment, suitable for various industrial, lubrication, and maintenance applications.

Installation Notes:

• Using genuine GRACO parts ensures compatibility, reliability, and optimal performance of the equipment.
• Ensure tubing is cut cleanly and squarely before insertion
• Hand-tighten fitting to avoid cross-threading
• Check for leaks after installation
• Follow manufacturer guidelines for torque specifications if available
• Regularly inspect fittings for signs of wear or leaks
• Replace fittings if damage or leakage is detected
• Use only compatible tubing and fittings for system integrity
