6AN Male to 1/4in NPT Male Adapter 1/8in Port

The 6AN Male to 1/4in NPT Male Adapter 1/8in Port by REDHORSE PERFORMANCE is a precision hydraulic and pneumatic line connector engineered for professional-grade fluid systems in tactical, military, and law enforcement applications. This adapter bridges two industry-standard port configurations, enabling seamless integration between AN-spec fittings and NPT-threaded components commonly found in vehicle hydraulic systems, weapon platforms, and portable equipment. Whether you're building custom fluid systems for armored platforms, maintaining specialized tactical gear, or assembling field-deployable hydraulic rigs, this compact adapter eliminates compatibility barriers while maintaining system integrity under demanding operational conditions.

Constructed with precision manufacturing standards, the 6AN male end accepts AN-spec hose fittings, while the 1/4-inch NPT male thread connects to female NPT ports on manifolds, pumps, or filtration equipment. The 1/8-inch port provides an auxiliary connection point for sensor lines, gauge installations, or secondary circuit feeds without requiring additional tee fittings. REDHORSE PERFORMANCE components meet military-grade material and pressure specifications, resisting corrosion and maintaining leak-free performance across temperature and pressure cycles typical in mobile tactical environments. The lightweight design (0.06 lbs) ensures minimal weight penalty in systems where every ounce matters, while the compact footprint (2.9 x 1.15 x 3.8 inches) fits tight engine bays and equipment compartments.

This adapter is ideal for law enforcement vehicle maintenance technicians, military mechanics, and tactical equipment specialists who specify dual-standard hydraulic systems. Installation is straightforward: secure the NPT male end into the manifold or pump port using appropriate wrenching, then connect your AN-hose assembly to the 6AN male end. Ensure proper thread sealant (PTFE tape or equivalent) on all NPT connections to prevent leakage under pressure. Compatible with all standard AN-hose sizes matching 6AN specifications and NPT-equipped hydraulic components, this adapter becomes an essential connector for cross-platform fluid system builds where standardized threads must coexist in a single circuit.
