Nickel -6 To 1/4in NPT

The Nickel -6 To 1/4in NPT straight adapter fitting from AEROQUIP is an essential component for automotive hydraulic and pneumatic systems where size or thread standard transitions are required. This adapter bridges the gap between -6 AN (JIC) and 1/4 inch NPT (National Pipe Thread) connections, making it indispensable for fuel systems, brake line installations, air suspension setups, and custom engine bay plumbing on performance vehicles.

Constructed from aluminum with nickel plating, this straight adapter delivers corrosion resistance and durability in both underbody and engine compartment applications exposed to moisture, salt, and thermal cycling. The nickel finish protects against oxidation while maintaining a professional appearance in visible installations. AEROQUIP's precision engineering ensures concentric bore alignment and zero-leak performance at pressure, critical when routing fuel or brake fluid where a failed connection risks system failure or safety compromise.

Mechanics and fabricators rely on this adapter when connecting various components in automotive systems. The -6 AN port accepts standard JIC-flared hoses and fittings common in motorsports and custom fabrication, while the 1/4 inch NPT port threads directly into factory or aftermarket threaded bungs on reservoirs, remote filters, gauges, and valve blocks. This versatility makes it a valuable addition to any toolkit for automotive enthusiasts and professionals alike.
