#12 Flare End Union Tee Black

The AEROQUIP #12 Flare End Union Tee Black (FCM5065) is a three-way adapter fitting designed for high-pressure hydraulic and pneumatic systems requiring reliable, leak-free connections. This 12 AN male tee fitting accommodates three separate 12 AN male ports, making it essential for systems where flow must be distributed or combined across multiple branches. The black anodized aluminum construction provides corrosion resistance in demanding environments while maintaining the lightweight properties critical for mobile equipment and aircraft applications.

The flare-end design ensures compatibility with standard AN flare connections, which are proven to withstand extreme pressures and vibration without separation. Aluminum construction offers a balance between strength and weight, important for applications where system mass impacts overall performance. The symmetrical three-port configuration allows flexible system layouts—whether distributing pressure from a single source or combining flow from multiple lines. Black anodizing provides a professional finish while protecting the aluminum from oxidation and environmental exposure across ground, marine, and aerospace platforms.

This fitting is specified for custom hydraulic assemblies in racing, off-road vehicles, agricultural equipment, and industrial fluid power systems where precise port distribution is necessary. Technicians and system designers select AN tee fittings to consolidate multiple pressure lines into organized, compact manifold configurations. The compact 3.5 × 1.75 × 5.25 inch footprint and light 0.25 lb weight make it suitable for space-constrained installations. AN-standard fittings like this are trusted across the aerospace and automotive industries for their proven reliability under sustained pressure cycling.
