Anderson Metals-56110-0604 Brass Pipe Fitting, Hex Bushing, 3/8" Male Pipe x 1/4" Female Pipe: Industrial Pipe Fittings

The Anderson Metals hex bushing pipe fitting is made of brass and has a male National Pipe Taper (NPT) threaded connection and a female NPT threaded connection.

This hex bushing fitting connects two pipes with different diameters and has a hexagonal head for an increased bearing surface when adjusting the fitting with a wrench.

It has male NPT threads on one end and female NPT threads on the other for connecting to a female and a male threaded pipe or fitting.

The NPT threads create a tighter seal than straight threads.

This fitting is made of brass for corrosion resistance, ductility at high temperatures, and low magnetic permeability.

Brass can be connected to copper, brass, plastic, aluminum, and welded steel.
