Apache 3/8"MP x 1/4"FP Hex Reducer Bushing Adapter

Description

The Apache 3/8" MP x 1/4" FP Hex Reducer Bushing Adapter connects mismatched port sizes in hydraulic systems. The NPT hex reducer pairs a 1/4" male NPTF port with a 3/8" female NPTF port, allowing operators to configure plumbing layouts without replacing entire hose assemblies. The hex-shaped body provides a solid grip for wrench tightening, helping produce a snug, leak-resistant fit at each connection point. Hydraulic systems often require adapters when combining components from different manufacturers or updating existing setups with new equipment. The Apache adapter supports proper fluid transfer between connection points. The reducer bushing handles port-size mismatches, making new hydraulic circuits and modifications to existing ones simpler to complete. Apache identifies the fitting under manufacturer part number 39035474. Key Features
