#12 An Flare To 1/2in Pipe

The AEROQUIP #12 AN Flare to 1/2 inch Pipe adapter is a straight-through hydraulic fitting designed to connect AN (Army-Navy) flare tube systems to NPT (National Pipe Thread) male ports. This steel adapter delivers reliable pressure containment in high-demand fluid power applications, from aircraft hydraulic systems to industrial machinery and mobile equipment platforms where secure, leak-free connections are critical.

Constructed from steel and finished with zinc plating, this fitting resists corrosion while maintaining structural integrity under sustained hydraulic pressure. The #12 AN male connection accommodates standard AN hose assemblies, while the 1/2 inch NPT male port threads directly into corresponding female receptacles on pumps, cylinders, manifolds, and reservoir fittings. The straight geometry ensures minimal flow restriction and straightforward installation without bends or elbows, ideal for compact manifold layouts and direct port-to-port interfaces.

This adapter is essential for technicians, hydraulic engineers, and equipment operators who need to bridge legacy NPT infrastructure with modern AN quick-disconnect or hard-line systems. Common applications include retrofit conversions on vintage aircraft, integration of aftermarket hydraulic controls on industrial equipment, and custom fluid power assembly work where standard AN-to-NPT transitions are required. Individual unit sale ensures you have the exact fitting needed without excess inventory.

AEROQUIP fittings are recognized throughout aerospace and industrial sectors for consistent manufacturing tolerances and pressure ratings. Verify compatibility with your system's operating pressure, fluid type, and thread-sealing compound requirements before installation.
