INSTALLATION & USE

How to Install John Guest Stem Adapter Fittings

  1. Ensure tubing is cut square and free of burrs or debris before connection.
  2. Push the quick-connect end of the stem adapter fully onto the tubing until it bottoms out in the fitting body.
  3. Thread the NPT end onto your tap, valve, or threaded port by turning clockwise until hand-tight, then snug with a wrench if needed.
  4. To disconnect, turn the nut counterclockwise to unlock, push the collet toward the fitting body, and pull the tubing free.
COMPATIBILITY

NPT Thread Sizing Reference

National Pipe Thread sizing does not match ruler measurements. A 1/4" NPT fitting measures approximately 0.540 inches in actual diameter, not 0.25 inches. When ordering, verify your existing thread size: 1/8" NPT measures 0.405", 1/4" NPT measures 0.540", 3/8" NPT measures 0.675", and 1/2" NPT measures 0.840". The John Guest Stem Adapter is compatible with reverse osmosis systems, undersink filters, ice makers, beverage equipment, and any application requiring a transition from quick-connect tubing to standard threaded connections.

🔧 Pro Tip: Always apply thread seal tape (PTFE tape) to the NPT threads before threading into metal or plastic ports to ensure a leak-free seal and prevent cross-threading during installation.
