1/2in-3/8in Pipe Bushing

The 1/2in-3/8in pipe bushing from AEROQUIP is a precision-engineered fitting designed to adapt mismatched NPT connections in fluid power and pneumatic systems. This reducer bushing converts a 1/2 inch NPT male port to a 3/8 inch NPT female connection, making it essential for technicians, maintenance professionals, and system integrators who need reliable port adaptation without system redesign. Whether you're working on industrial hydraulic lines, pneumatic tools, or fluid transfer applications, this adapter fitting ensures leak-free performance in demanding environments.

Manufactured from aluminum and finished in blue anodized coating, the 1/2in-3/8in pipe bushing provides corrosion resistance and durability across a wide range of operating conditions. The anodized surface protects against oxidation while maintaining dimensional stability, and aluminum construction keeps weight minimal—just 0.05 lbs—without compromising structural integrity. AEROQUIP's FCM2139 bushing features precise NPT thread geometry that ensures proper sealing when paired with compatible tape or sealant compounds, eliminating guesswork during installation and reducing the risk of costly system leaks.

This bushing is ideal for retrofit applications, emergency repairs, and custom plumbing configurations where port sizes don't align with available components. Installation is straightforward—simply thread the 1/2 inch NPT male end into your main line and connect a 3/8 inch NPT female hose or fitting to the adapter outlet. The compact 2.25 x 1.5 x 3.5 inch profile fits tight spaces without obstruction, making it valuable in confined equipment housings and tight-tolerance assemblies across agriculture, construction, manufacturing, and mobile equipment sectors.
