Built from solid brass, this fitting provides a reliable, leak-resistant transition between flare and pipe thread configurations. It measures 1.31 inches in overall length with a 0.94-inch hex for standard wrench engagement. Weighing just 0.08 pounds, it is a compact, purpose-built connector used by licensed plumbers and gas fitters working on LP gas lines and related low-pressure piping applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis adapter is suited for residential and light commercial installations where a 3\/8-inch male flare connection must transition to a 1\/2-inch female NPT fitting. Typical applications include LP gas appliance hookups, propane distribution lines, and similar low-pressure plumbing assemblies. The straight connector geometry simplifies in-line installations where no directional change is needed. Plumbers, gas fitters, and HVAC technicians working on propane systems will encounter this fitting type frequently in appliance supply connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrass construction for corrosion resistance and durability in LP gas service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch male flare to 1\/2-inch female NPT straight adapter configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.31-inch overall length suits tight installation spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.94-inch hex allows standard open-end or adjustable wrench installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight connector shape for direct in-line plumbing transitions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for LP gas piping systems requiring a male flare to female NPT adapter in a straight connector configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter in accordance with local codes and IFGC requirements. Shut off the gas supply and verify zero pressure at the fitting location before beginning work. Apply appropriate thread sealant rated for gas service to the NPT threads only — never apply sealant to flare seating surfaces. After assembly, pressure-test the connection with an approved leak detection method before returning the system to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Male Flare x Female NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNPT Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.31 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHex Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.94 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.08 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ELKHART PRODUCTS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 X 1\/2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ELKHART PRODUCTS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51468530581810,"sku":"3\/8 X 1\/2","price":23.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/313946994.png?v=1783916559","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/elkhart-products-3-8-x-1-2-lp-male-flare-x-female-npt-adapter","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
