Default 3/8 to 1/4 NPT nipple?
Anybody know where I can get a 3/8 to 1/4 NPT aluminum nipple? I know there are male/female NPT reducers, but I'd really like to get this nipple instead.

Default Never seen one
A nipple that changes sizes like that..>what I would do is go to the local hydralucs shoppe and buy a 3/8 ths and 1/4 nipple...cut them in half and weld the two sizes back together.

Hey you could make 2 of them for not extra charge..

Default Steel not aluminium
But this is a small part so don't weigh much

Wicks sells the AN919 reducers, which are nipple to nipple reducers.

AN919-6D is a 3/8 to 1/4 reducer.
