About this part

Product Details

When you're setting up custom fuel or oil lines, you often need to connect components that use different thread types. This Vibrant adapter fitting is designed to bridge that gap, letting you connect a -6AN hose fitting to a 1/4 inch NPT port, while also giving you a smaller 1/8 inch NPT port for a sensor or gauge. It’s a handy piece for custom fabrication projects where you need to adapt different systems together smoothly.

This fitting is made from 6061 aluminum alloy, which keeps the weight down and makes it easy to work with. The anodized black finish helps protect it and gives it a clean look. It’s built to provide a reliable, leak-free seal, which is crucial when you're dealing with fuel or oil systems. You'll find these types of adapters are commonly used with popular oil pumps, fuel pumps, and fuel filters.

Remember that the 1/8 inch NPT port is open, so you'll need a separate plug if you aren't using it for a sensor or gauge. This adapter is sold individually.
