Description

This Heavy-Duty Brass Adapter (often referred to as an extension adapter or pipe bushing) is engineered to extend a plumbing run, adapt thread genders, or provide a robust transition point in fluid and pneumatic systems. Machined from premium, thick-walled brass, this fitting features a 1/4″ female pipe thread on one end and a 1/4″ male pipe thread on the other, maintaining a consistent line size while providing exceptional durability under mechanical stress.

Key Specifications

• Connection Type A: 1/4″ FPT (Female Pipe Thread)

• Connection Type B: 1/4″ MPT (Male Pipe Thread)

• Material: Heavy-Duty Solid Brass

• Thread Profile: Standard NPT (National Pipe Thread)

• Design: Straight Hex Body Extension Adapter

Product Highlights

• Thick-Walled “Heavy” Profile: Built with significantly more material mass than standard economy brass fittings. The extra wall thickness provides superior resistance to structural fatigue, stretching, and cracking when subjected to high torque or constant mechanical vibration.

• Corrosion-Resistant Material: Solid brass construction offers excellent natural resistance to rust, scale, and corrosion, making it ideal for use with water, oil, gas, air, and automotive fluids.

• Wrench-Friendly Hex Body: Precision-machined with a solid external hex profile. This provides a wide, flat surface for open-end or adjustable wrenches to grip securely, ensuring maximum leverage without slipping or rounding the edges.

• Precision-Cut NPT Threads: Manufactured to tight tolerances to ensure deep thread engagement and a tight, reliable seal when mated with standard pipe fittings.
