Description & Features

Constructed from molded nylon, this Eaton Aeroquip Male Connector provides a straight adapter configuration between a line, hose, or tube end and a 1/4 in. BSPP male thread. The nylon construction keeps weight low while offering reliable performance in fluid conveyance applications where corrosion resistance is a priority. Dura-Kote plating further strengthens resistance to corrosion, making this fitting well-suited for demanding industrial environments.

Both end sizes measure 0.25 in., with a hex size of 0.62 in. on the BSPP end. Part of Eaton's molded compression tube product line, this fitting is designed to meet or exceed SAE pressure standards and is available in hundreds of styles to accommodate varied connection requirements across hydraulic and fluid system assemblies.

Question by: Joyce A on Apr 3, 2025, 1:51 PM
what thread type is on the fitting end of this connector? trying to match it up to a port on some equipment and wanna make sure i got the right one before it ships
Answer by: Customer Support on Apr 4, 2025, 4:43 PM
The male end on this connector is BSPP, which is British Standard Parallel Pipe. That's a straight thread commonly found on European-style hydraulic equipment and certain imported machinery. The other end connects to a standard line, hose, or tube. Both ends are 1/4 inch, so as long as your port is 1/4 BSPP, you're in good shape.

got a 1/4 inch tube line on one side and need to go into a 1/4 BSPP port, is that what this adapter’s for?
Answer by: Customer Support on Jul 9, 2025, 8:00 PM
Made for exactly that kind of hookup, it’s a straight adapter that goes from a line, hose, or tube connection on one end to a BSPP male connection on the other, both in 1/4 inch size.
