Midland Industries 10270EH Sae 45-deg Flare Adapter Brass

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 10270EH is an extra-heavy SAE 45-degree flare adapter designed for high-integrity connections in hydraulic and fluid transfer systems. It transitions from a 1/2-inch male flared end to a 3/4-inch male NPTF thread, providing a reliable leak-resistant seal in demanding service conditions. Constructed from brass, this adapter is rated for working pressures up to 750 psi and performs across a temperature range of -65 to 250 degrees F. The 1.06-inch hex dimension supports standard wrench engagement for secure torque application during installation.

This adapter is suited for use in hydraulic plumbing, refrigeration, fuel systems, and general fluid-handling applications where SAE 45-degree flare connections interface with NPTF-threaded ports. It is compatible with copper, brass, aluminum, and steel hydraulic tubing. Typical installation scenarios include equipment manifolds, mobile hydraulics, and stationary hydraulic power units in both commercial and industrial settings. Plumbers, pipefitters, and hydraulic system technicians are the primary trades installing this fitting.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified plumber, pipefitter, or hydraulic technician. Depressurize and isolate the system completely before disconnecting or installing any fittings. Apply appropriate thread sealant to NPTF threads per system fluid compatibility requirements. Tighten to the fitting manufacturer and system design specifications using a properly sized wrench on the hex flats - do not overtighten or use pipe wrenches on the flare end.
