1/4 FPT x 3/8 MPT Bushing 2576
$4.25
1/4 FPT x 3/8 MPT Bushing 2576. A bushing reduces one thread size down to another, letting you connect components that don't share a common size.
Match the material to the service. Stainless resists chemicals best, brass suits general water service, plated steel is economical for clean water, and poly or PVC belongs on chemical and low-pressure lines.
Getting fitment right comes down to three things: thread type, thread size, and pressure rating. NPT threads taper and seal on the thread itself, which is why thread sealant or PTFE tape is needed on the male side. Mixing thread standards — NPT against BSP or metric — will either refuse to thread or leak under pressure even when it seems to fit by hand.
Grime Task Force stocks fittings across materials and sizes because a rig is only as reliable as its plumbing, and a single wrong or failing fitting can shut down a job. Keeping common sizes on the truck turns most plumbing failures into a short delay instead of a lost day.
