#3 Stl Flare to 1/8in NP Adapter

The AEROQUIP #3 Steel Flare to 1/8in NPT Adapter (FBM2511) is a straight-thread adapter fitting designed for hydraulic and pneumatic systems that require reliable conversion between a single 3 AN male fitting and a 1/8 inch NPT male port. This adapter is essential for fluid power applications where different threading standards must be joined without compromise or leakage.

Constructed from steel with a zinc oxide finish, the adapter provides corrosion resistance suitable for industrial and mobile equipment environments. Its straight-thread design simplifies installation by eliminating the complexity of swivel fittings while maintaining a compact footprint, weighing just 0.04 lbs and measuring 2.8 x 0.55 x 5.95 inches. AEROQUIP's manufacturing standards ensure precise thread tolerances and a secure seal when properly installed with compatible sealants or tape on NPT threads.

This adapter is beneficial for technicians and engineers working with hydraulic power units, pneumatic control systems, mobile equipment, and stationary fluid power circuits. It effectively addresses the common integration issue when system components arrive with mixed thread standards, allowing for seamless connections between AN flare fittings and pipe-threaded ports. While the zinc oxide coating offers baseline corrosion protection for indoor and light outdoor use, additional preventative measures may be warranted for more demanding environments.
