AN reducing tee?
Is there any such thing as an AN fitting reducing tee? I'd like to find one similar to an AN824, but with 6D on both ends of the run and 4D on the side.
Thanks,

Aeroquip catalog
This is one of the best references I've found for AN fittings:

They're a bit scattered throughout the catalog, but it's a pretty comprehensive listing.

Try this.
1ea AN818-6D -6 Aluminum B-nut
1 ea NAS1564-6-4D Aluminum Reducer Nipple -6 to -4
Put the Reducer Nipple on the -6 fitting, secure with the -6 B-nut.
If you have the room this is an easy fix.

Does not exist
The lack of availability of this fitting has frustrated me for years and I spent hours trying to find it.
As far as I know it does not exist and yet every airplane needs at least one or 2 of those.
Yeah, I know you can cobble 2 fittings together with a reducer to get what you need, but why is this fitting not made?
Anyone know the answer?

Earl's has one, but the one I found has 2 #8's, and one #4. They might make one at Earl's with #6AN, I couldn't find it though. Here's the 8AN/4AN:

purge line check valve
Thanks all, but I've since decided to put a check valve in my purge line and since the cheap one from ACS uses -6 ports, I have to reduce it down anyway. Andair has a nicer check valve with configurable ports which could serve double duty as both check valve and reducer, but I can't see paying twice as much.
