The SS316 Adaptor is a compact stainless steel tube fitting designed to connect 1/4" tubing to a 1/4" NPT female port in gas equipment, instrumentation panels, manifolds and other compatible systems.
Manufactured from 316 stainless steel, the fitting combines a 1/4" NPT male connection with a 1/4" compression tube connection, providing a robust and serviceable transition between threaded equipment and stainless steel tubing. The manufacturer's range identifies this fitting style as a Male Connector – Tube to Male NPT Thread, with NPT threads manufactured to ANSI B1.20.1.
