BSPT Adapter Fitting -6AN To 1/2in - 14

The BSPT Adapter Fitting -6AN To 1/2in - 14 by Vibrant Performance is a precision straight adapter designed to bridge two different hydraulic and pneumatic port standards in high-performance fluid systems. This fitting serves as a critical connection point for custom cooling systems, fuel lines, and pressure-regulated applications where AN (Army Navy) fittings must interface with BSPT (British Standard Pipe Tapered) threads. Whether you're building a race car cooling circuit, aftermarket fuel system, or industrial hydraulic setup, this adapter eliminates the need for multiple hoses and reduces potential leak points.

Manufactured from aluminum and finished in black anodizing, the BSPT adapter provides corrosion resistance and durability in demanding environments. The straight-flow design minimizes turbulence and pressure loss compared to 90-degree configurations, making it ideal for applications requiring consistent flow rates. The -6AN male connection accepts standard -6 AN hose and fittings, while the 1/2-14 BSPT male thread engages directly with female BSPT ports found on OEM and aftermarket components. Black anodized aluminum construction balances weight savings with structural integrity, and the precision machining ensures leak-free performance under sustained pressure cycling.

This adapter is essential for technicians and enthusiasts working on cross-platform hydraulic and fluid transfer projects where mixed thread standards are unavoidable. Compact dimensions (3.65 x 1 x 4.2 inches) and minimal weight (0.05 lbs) allow flexible installation in tight engine bays or component housings. Verify that your receiving component features a 1/2-14 BSPT female port and that your hose assembly uses -6 AN male fittings before installation; proper thread sealing with PTFE tape or hydraulic sealant is recommended for optimal reliability and leak prevention in pressurized circuits.
