3/8" FLARE X 3/8" M.I.P. (TAPPED 1/4" F.I.P.)

Bridge flexible flare tubing and rigid pipe installations with a single precision adapter featuring a 3/8‑inch flare interface, 3/8‑inch male iron pipe threading, and a factory‑machined 1/4‑inch female iron pipe tap.

This fitting converts circular flare line connections into a threaded pipeline route while maintaining a secondary instrument port. The flare end seats standard 3/8‑inch diameter tubing, the 3/8‑inch M.I.P. section screws directly into corresponding female pipe fittings, and the internal 1/4‑inch F.I.P. drill pass secures pressure gauges, level sensors, or manual bleed needles without requiring an external tee bracket or inline manifold.

• Flare End: 3/8‑inch sizing for push‑to‑connect flexible line routing
• Male Thread: 3/8‑inch iron pipe dimensions for rigid supply integration
• Tap Location: 1/4‑inch female iron pipe opening milled into the housing for measurement devices

Deploy this configuration when retrofits demand reduced part counts or when tight equipment envelopes leave no room for supplementary plumbing hardware. Align the male pipe threads with compatible mating connectors and apply standard thread sealant rated for your target medium. Verify that maximum working pressure stays within the base system limits, then torque the flare nut and pipe threads to manufacturer specifications for vibration‑resistant sealing across hydraulic, lubrication, and fluid transfer applications.
