It is machined from brass, a material chosen for fuel and fluid line fittings because it resists corrosion from moisture and fuel exposure while holding a tight seal under vibration. The union uses a symmetrical inverted flare design on both ends, so it connects two lengths of 3\/16 inch inverted-flare tubing or hose without requiring a change in fitting type. Typical uses include extending, splicing, or repairing a damaged section of fuel or brake line where a clean, leak-resistant joint is needed. Because both ends match, the fitting can be installed in either orientation. At 0.01 pounds, it is a small, lightweight component intended to be paired with the appropriate flare nuts and matching 3\/16 inch inverted-flare tubing for a proper connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dexter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 071-A73-00\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Union\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd 1 Connection:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3\/16 inch inverted flare\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd 2 Connection:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3\/16 inch inverted flare\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the Dexter 071-A73-00 union fitting connect?\u003c\/strong\u003e It joins two 3\/16 inch inverted flare lines together, since both ends of the 071-A73-00 use the same 3\/16 inch inverted flare connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this fitting made of brass?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the Dexter 071-A73-00 union fitting is made of brass, which resists corrosion from fuel and moisture while maintaining a tight seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the 071-A73-00 have a direction it must be installed in?\u003c\/strong\u003e No, both ends of the Dexter 071-A73-00 are the same 3\/16 inch inverted flare connection, so it can be installed in either orientation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does this fitting weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Dexter 071-A73-00 brass union fitting weighs 0.01 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size line does the Dexter 071-A73-00 fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is sized for 3\/16 inch inverted flare tubing or hose on both sides of the union.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this fitting be used to repair a damaged fuel or brake line?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, splicing in the Dexter 071-A73-00 union is a common way to repair or extend a 3\/16 inch inverted flare line without replacing the entire run.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need flare nuts to use this fitting?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the Dexter 071-A73-00 union requires matching 3\/16 inch inverted flare nuts on the connecting lines to form a complete, sealed joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is included with the 071-A73-00?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Dexter 071-A73-00 is sold as the brass union fitting itself; matching flare nuts and tubing are separate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the 071-A73-00 a genuine Dexter part?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, 071-A73-00 is the Dexter manufacturer part number for this brass union fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this union be used on both fuel and brake lines?\u003c\/strong\u003e The brass construction and 3\/16 inch inverted flare ends of the Dexter 071-A73-00 make it suitable for connecting 3\/16 inch inverted-flare fuel or brake lines.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dexter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48991258443995,"sku":"DEX-071-A73-00","price":7.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/DEX-071-A73-00__04105.1780061499.500.750.jpg?v=1785329083","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/brass-union-fitting-3-16-to-3-16-inverted-flare-connector-mpn-071-a73-00","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
