#6 To 3/8 Male Pipe

The #6 to 3/8 Male Pipe fitting from AEROQUIP is a straight socketless hose end connector engineered for pneumatic and hydraulic systems requiring reliable AN-to-NPT thread conversion. Designed for professionals in aerospace, industrial, and mobile equipment maintenance, this brass fitting bridges the gap between 6 AN hose barb connections and 3/8-inch NPT male ports. It eliminates the need for adapters or field modifications, streamlining installation and reducing leak points in critical fluid transfer applications.

This socketless design features a straight configuration that minimizes flow turbulence and pressure drop while maintaining structural integrity under load. The brass construction provides excellent corrosion resistance, thermal stability, and compatibility with a wide range of hydraulic fluids, air, and fuel applications. The 6 AN hose barb end accepts standard AN hoses with secure, reusable barbed connections, while the 3/8-inch NPT male thread ensures tight, ISO-compliant port engagement. At just 0.1 lbs and measuring 2.3 x 1.15 x 3.75 inches, the compact footprint makes it ideal for space-constrained installations without sacrificing durability or performance.

Technicians and equipment operators benefit from this fitting's universal compatibility across OEM and aftermarket hydraulic systems. It is commonly used in heavy equipment, aircraft ground support, industrial machinery, and automotive applications where AN hose routing meets NPT port standards. Installation requires only hand-tightening or wrench support—no specialized tools are necessary. The straight geometry reduces vibration stress compared to elbow fittings, making it the preferred choice for high-pressure systems and dynamic environments. Each fitting ships individually and is ready for immediate use.
