Overview
The Brennan 1404-06-08 swivel adapter is a male NPT to female NPSM straight pipe swivel fitting designed for fluid transfer applications in industrial hydraulic and pneumatic systems. This lot includes 5 units of the same part number, providing redundancy and spares for maintenance or multi-system installations. The swivel feature allows for rotational freedom during connection, simplifying installation and reducing stress on connected components.
Key Features
- Straight swivel design enables rotational alignment without additional tools
- Male 3/8″ NPTF thread with female 1/2″ NPSM thread configuration
- Tapered male thread creates reliable seal through thread deformation; straight female thread uses flat-face mechanical sealing
- ISO 9001:2015, AS9100D, and NADCAP certified for aerospace and hydraulic industries
- No pipe sealant required on NPSM side due to mechanical seal design
- Durable steel construction rated for 3500 PSI working pressure
