looking for pipe adaptor

6 posts in this topic

Posted

I just picked up a parking brake valve for my Avid rebuild, probably should have spent the extra money for a new Matco, but didn't.  I need to come up with 2 adaptors from the AN 3 fittings to 3/16" Nyla flow fittings for these fittings.  The other 2 connections are 1/8" pipe thread, and I can use 1/8" NPT to Nyla Flow fittings there.  Probably have those in fact.  I'm sure I can put in a short section of aluminum tube and make the conversion that way, but it would be nice if I could do it with one fitting on each side.  Any ideas?  Thanks,  Jim Chuk

What threads do you have when you remove a AN3 fitting?  EDMO

I don't think I can get rid of these top fittings.  There is a spring inside the fitting that goes against a valve or something inside.  The side fittings can be changed out with no problem I believe.  Jim Chuk

Just a bit of clarifying,   the AN fitting are #4, not #3.  Jim Chuk
