#12 An Flare To 3/4in Pipe

The #12 AN Flare To 3/4in Pipe adapter fitting is a precision hydraulic and pneumatic connector engineered for high-reliability fluid power systems. This straight adapter bridges AN (Army-Navy) flare connections to NPT (National Pipe Thread) ports, making it essential for retrofit installations, mobile equipment, and industrial machinery where mixed fitting standards must interface seamlessly. Technicians and equipment builders rely on this adapter to eliminate the need for complete system redesigns when connecting modern AN components to legacy or standard NPT infrastructure.

Manufactured by AEROQUIP under MPN FCM2532, this fitting delivers robust performance through its steel construction with zinc-plated corrosion protection. The #12 AN male flare end accepts industry-standard AN hoses and bulkhead connectors, while the 3/4 inch NPT male port threads directly into female NPT ports found on pumps, valves, and manifolds. Zinc plating provides superior resistance to rust and environmental degradation in both indoor and outdoor applications, while steel's inherent strength withstands the pressure demands of hydraulic systems operating at commercial and industrial duty cycles.

This adapter serves hydraulic technicians, fleet maintenance departments, agricultural equipment operators, and manufacturing facilities managing multi-standard fluid systems. Installation is straightforward: the AN flare end accommodates standard swaged hose fittings with a wrench, while the NPT thread seals against pipe thread ports using PTFE tape or thread sealant compound. Its compact footprint (3.25 x 1.75 x 5.25 inches) fits tight spaces common in engine bays and equipment frames, making it ideal for pressure washer systems, log splitters, mobile cranes, and custom hydraulic builds where space efficiency matters.
