Product details

Need to get a 3/8 inch water line onto a 3/4 inch threaded outlet? The Crystal Clear 495-38 is a generic adapter with a 3/4 inch female thread on one end and a 3/8 inch tube connection on the other. It's a universal fitting rather than a part made for one appliance brand, used when plumbing in water filters and similar drinking water lines.

Where a 3/4 to 3/8 tube adapter fits in

Water filter systems and other drinking water lines often run in 3/8 inch tube, while taps, valves and some housings carry 3/4 inch threads. This adapter bridges the two, so the tube can be connected without a string of extra fittings. Replace an old adapter if its thread has been cross threaded, the body has cracked, or the tube end weeps no matter how carefully it is reseated. A small leak at a fitting can waste a lot of water over time and damage cabinetry, so fix it early.

Connecting the adapter

Turn the water off at the isolating valve or mains first and open a tap to release pressure. Check the male thread you are connecting to is clean and undamaged, and use thread tape if the joint seals on the thread. Cut the tube square with a proper tube cutter, connect it fully as the fitting requires, then turn the water back on slowly and check for drips.

Questions about this part

Will this fit my tap or filter?
