-16AN Male - 1 in. Pipe Size - Steel

The AEROQUIP -16AN Male to 1 in. Pipe Size Steel adapter (FCM2535) is a straight-port fitting designed to connect AN (Army-Navy) standardized hose lines to NPT (National Pipe Thread) male ports in hydraulic, pneumatic, and fuel system applications. This type of adapter is essential in high-pressure fluid transfer systems where reliable, leak-free connections are critical—from industrial equipment and agricultural machinery to performance vehicles and aerospace applications. The steel construction with zinc plating ensures durability in demanding environments where corrosion resistance and strength are non-negotiable.

Built to AEROQUIP's exacting standards, this straight adapter features a -16AN male connection (commonly referenced as -16 JIC) on one end and a 1-inch NPT male thread on the other. The zinc-plated steel construction provides superior corrosion resistance and maintains structural integrity under sustained pressure cycles. The straight-port design minimizes turbulence and pressure drop, optimizing flow rates in hydraulic circuits. At 0.5 lbs and compact dimensions of 3.45 x 1.75 x 5.25 inches, this fitting integrates seamlessly into tight mechanical spaces while maintaining full pressure rating capacity for professional-grade systems.

Technicians, OEM manufacturers, and equipment rebuilders rely on AEROQUIP adapters when original equipment specifications demand AN-to-NPT port conversion. This fitting is ideal for custom hydraulic line assemblies, pump manifold modifications, and retrofit installations where equipment originally specified NPT connections but now requires the superior sealing characteristics and pressure ratings of -16AN hose terminations. Always verify thread compatibility with your existing system components and ensure proper torque specifications during installation to maintain system integrity and prevent leakage.
