45 Deg Alum #4 Flare 1/8 in Black

The 45 Deg Alum #4 Flare 1/8 in Black adapter from AEROQUIP is a precision hydraulic and pneumatic fitting designed for professionals who demand reliability in high-pressure applications. This 45-degree aluminum adapter connects 4 AN (Army-Navy) male flare ports to 1/8 inch NPT (National Pipe Thread) male ports, making it essential for fluid power systems in aerospace, industrial, and tactical equipment setups. Whether you're building custom hydraulic lines, repairing pneumatic systems, or assembling specialized equipment, this adapter serves as a critical junction point where different port standards must interface seamlessly.

Constructed from aluminum and finished in black anodizing, the 45 Deg Alum #4 Flare 1/8 in Black adapter delivers corrosion resistance and lightweight performance without sacrificing strength. The 45-degree angle design reduces fitting stress by directing fluid flow at an optimized angle, minimizing turbulence and pressure drop across the connection. Black anodizing provides both aesthetic consistency with tactical equipment and additional surface protection against oxidation and wear. The flare connection on the 4 AN side ensures a metal-to-metal seal under pressure, while the NPT male thread on the 1/8 inch side accommodates standard pipe thread fittings common in industrial manifolds and valve assemblies.

Technicians and equipment builders rely on the 45 Deg Alum #4 Flare 1/8 in Black for applications requiring code-compliant, leak-free connections in confined spaces where angle fittings prevent line interference. This adapter is ideal for integrating subsystems that use different port standards—common in custom hydraulic platforms, specialized machinery, and modular tactical systems. Installation is straightforward: hand-tighten the flare connection, then apply a wrench to the hex body while securing the NPT end. Weighing just 0.03 lbs and compact at 2.35 x 1.15 x 3.75 inches, it adds minimal bulk to systems where every gram and cubic inch matters.
