Product Questions & Answers (2)

Question by: Glen M on Nov 2, 2025, 6:47 PM
Will this adapter work with regular pipe fittings, or does it have to be NPTF?
Answer by: Customer Support on Nov 4, 2025, 6:53 AM
This is an NPTF (National Pipe Taper Fuel) adapter, so it's designed to seal without tape or sealant, especially in fuel or hydraulic applications. Regular NPT (National Pipe Taper) threads might not seal as reliably without some extra help.
Question by: Judy B on Mar 9, 2026, 11:37 AM
got a 3/8-18 npt port on a manifold. is this the straight adapter that goes male on one side and female on the other?
Answer by: Customer Support on Mar 11, 2026, 11:17 AM
For a straight NPT connection, this adapter is 3/8-18 male NPT on one end and 3/8-18 female NPT on the other, so it matches a 3/8-18 NPT male-to-female setup.
