04BT-04FP ADAPTER STRAIGHT

Description & Features

Designed for straight inline connections between tube and pipe thread fittings, the 04BT-04FP Adapter Straight from Brennan Industries connects a 1/4 in. OD tube end to a 1/4-18 NPTF port. The tube side uses a 7/16-20 thread with a 0.203 in. drill diameter and a seating depth of 0.234 in., while a 0.750 in. hex provides a consistent wrench flat for installation. Overall length is 1.30 in., keeping the adapter compact for use in tight assemblies.

Part of Brennan's C2405 series, this adapter is suited for hydraulic circuits and fluid power systems where a direct tube-to-female pipe thread transition is required without angled routing. The NPTF thread form provides a pressure-tight mechanical seal without relying solely on thread sealant.

Question by: Carl A on Apr 29, 2025, 12:09 PM
got a 1/4 inch tube line and a 1/4-18 nptf port, is this the straight adapter that ties those together?
Answer by: Customer Support on Apr 30, 2025, 2:24 PM
For a straight, inline tube-to-pipe transition, it matches a 1/4 in. OD tube end on one side and a 1/4-18 NPTF port on the other. The tube end uses a 7/16-20 thread.
Question by: Brenda D on Sep 29, 2025, 4:16 PM
fitting's only 1.30 inches long, that gonna cause any issues getting a wrench on it during install?
Answer by: Customer Support on Oct 1, 2025, 6:37 AM
At 0.750 inch hex, you've got a solid wrench flat to work with even at that overall length. Compact adapters like this one can feel a little tight in crowded assemblies, but the hex size is consistent enough that a standard open-end or combination wrench seats on it without much fuss. Just make sure you've got reasonable clearance on the tube side before you torque it down.
