Compression Parts Required
The LUBE USA 106202 KP-46 tubing coupler is designed for use with compatible compression parts on both ends. Select compression nuts, compression sleeves, and any required tube inserts that match the connected 4mm and 6mm tubing.
Verify the tubing outside diameters, M8 × 1.0 connection, M10 × 1.0 connection, and compression-part compatibility before installation.
Reducing Tubing Connection
The KP-46 provides a straight inline transition from 4mm tubing to 6mm tubing. This configuration is useful when different tubing sizes are required within the same centralized lubrication system or when connecting an existing line to a component that requires a different tubing diameter.
Cut both tubing ends square and inspect them for damage before assembly. Properly installed compression parts help create a secure connection and support dependable lubricant delivery.
Dimensional Drawing
A dimensional drawing is included with this product to help verify the tubing sizes, thread specifications, overall length, hex size, and required installation clearance before ordering.
Review the dimensional drawing and confirm that the KP-46 coupler, 4mm × 6mm tubing configuration, M8 × 1.0 and M10 × 1.0 connections, 27mm overall length, and 12mm hex match your lubrication system requirements.
Why a Reducing Tubing Coupler Matters
A properly selected reducing coupler allows two different lubrication tubing sizes to be joined without replacing the complete tubing run. A secure inline transition helps prevent lubricant leakage, maintain reliable lubricant delivery, and simplify lubrication system repairs or modifications.
