trying to hook a 3/8 tube inverted flare line into a 1/4-18 npt port, is this the right elbow for that?
Answer by: Customer Support on Dec 2, 2025, 12:30 PM
For that kind of hookup, it matches up as a 90 degree elbow with a 1/4-18 male NPTF on one end and a 0.38 inch female 42 degree inverted flare on the other, sized for 0.375 inch tube outer diameter.

fitting's rated for fuel lines too, or just hydraulic stuff?
Answer by: Customer Support on Nov 30, 2025, 11:34 AM
Fuel lines are actually one of the primary applications for this adapter. It handles hydraulic brake, power steering, transmission cooler lines, and fuel lines. LP and natural gas are also listed as supported applications, though those are noted as special order. The 42-degree inverted flare connection on the 3/8-inch female end pairs with the 1/4-18 male NPT side to give you a secure 90-degree elbow routing option across all those line types.
