Str Alum #4 Flare 1/8in Pipe

The AEROQUIP Str Alum #4 Flare 1/8in Pipe fitting is a straight aluminum adapter designed to connect 4 AN male outlets to 1/8 inch NPT male ports. This blue anodized fitting serves as a critical component in hydraulic and pneumatic systems where port-size conversion is required, offering reliable flow transitions in applications ranging from industrial equipment to high-performance vehicles and aerospace assemblies.

The adapter's aluminum construction with blue anodize finish provides corrosion resistance while maintaining a lightweight profile suitable for mobile and weight-sensitive installations. The straight flare design on the 4 AN side ensures secure, leak-free connections with industry-standard AN fittings, while the 1/8 inch NPT male thread accommodates standard pipe connectors. Precision machining of the port interfaces guarantees compatibility and minimizes pressure drop during fluid transfer. The compact dimensions (1.5 x 0.95 x 4.15 inches) and minimal weight (0.05 lbs) facilitate installation in tight equipment enclosures without adding bulk.

Technicians and engineers select this adapter when existing 1/8 inch NPT infrastructure must interface with modern AN-sized systems, or when equipment upgrades demand mixed-standard plumbing. Common applications include engine bay modifications, pressure testing configurations, fluid recovery systems, and retrofit hydraulic installations. The AEROQUIP part FBM2001 is specified where reliability under pressure and proven manufacturing standards matter.

This fitting represents a point-of-connection solution for professionals who need verified compatibility between legacy NPT infrastructure and modern AN-standard fluid systems. Each unit is sold individually, allowing exact specification of port configurations for complex multi-component assemblies.
