3/8" NPT to 1/4" NPT Brass Reducer Fitting, 2-Pack Solid Brass Hex Nipple — Open-Box, 20% Off

Connects 3/8 inch port to 1/4 inch port: This reducer fitting solves port mismatch instantly. The precision-machined National Pipe Taper (NPT) threads meet ANSI B1.20.1 standard, ensuring compatibility with standard female NPT ports in hydraulic lines, pneumatic controls, and plumbing systems. No more trips to the hardware store or waiting for the right adapter Solid brass construction: This fitting is machined from solid forged brass, not plated zinc alloy. Forged brass construction provides consistent density throughout the material, without internal voids or porosity. The result is a fitting that resists corrosion from water, oil, compressed air, and diesel fuel for long-term reliability in demanding environments High pressure capacity: Rated for 300 PSI working pressure with a 1200 PSI burst rating, delivering a 4 to 1 safety factor. This pressure capacity suits air compressor systems, hydraulic lines, and industrial equipment that demand consistent performance. Temperature range from minus 65 to plus 250 degrees Fahrenheit covers outdoor HVAC and engine bay installations Installation instructions for leak-free connection: The tapered NPT threads create a metal-to-metal seal when properly installed. Follow these steps: Clean threads with a cloth, apply 3 to 4 clockwise wraps of PTFE tape on male threads, hand-tighten first to avoid cross-threading, use a wrench for 1 to 2 additional turns past hand-tight. Note: Exposed threads after tightening are normal for NPT fittings and indicate the taper is working as designed 2-pack set for multiple applications: This 2-piece set keeps your toolbox, truck, or facility supplied for multiple repair stations without reordering. Each fitting meets ASTM B584 quality standards. Approved applications: compressed air systems, hydraulic oil lines, diesel and gasoline fuel lines, non-potable water lines, HVAC refrigerant lines. Note not for use with: potable drinking water
