hydraulic fitting adapters

[shawn]

Anybody know where to find 3/8" male o-ring and 7/16" male o-ring adapters? Preferably to NPT or AN or something more common.

Std male o-ring fittings look just like the metric variety... captured male fitting on the tube, crimp in the hose to make an o-ring seat, o-ring goes around the tube.

Application is hydroboost pressure lines. Furd apparently used std thread where GM and Dodge used 16mm and 18mm.

Looks something like this:

last time i had to do that I reused the hard line end, and flared it to -6an.

Not worried about the line right now. I'd like to do that with the pump side of the line... 16mm to -6 adapters are easy to find... but the OEM hose doesn't have any hard line on the pump side.

If I can remember I'll grab our tri-flex hose vendor at work tomorrow. If it's made he can get it.
