17544 - 3/8 Inch to 1/4 Inch Brass Pipe Adaptor Fitting

Precision Brass Adaptor for Industrial Connections

The ESAB 17544 Adaptor is a high-quality industrial fitting designed to bridge the gap between 3/8-inch and 1/4-inch threaded connections. Manufactured from solid brass, this component is engineered to withstand the rigors of daily industrial use, offering superior resistance to corrosion, rust, and mechanical stress compared to standard steel or plastic fittings. Whether you are configuring a gas distribution manifold, adapting a regulator, or setting up pneumatic tools, this adaptor ensures a secure and professional installation.

In fluid and gas transfer systems, the integrity of every connection is paramount. This adaptor features precision-machined threads that engage smoothly and bite firmly, minimizing the risk of cross-threading and ensuring a tight seal when used with appropriate thread sealants. The hexagonal body provides ample surface area for wrenches, allowing for easy tightening without stripping the flats. It is an essential component for maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) inventories, ensuring that incompatible thread sizes do not halt production or repair workflows.

This fitting is versatile enough for a wide range of media, including inert gases, compressed air, and water, making it a staple in welding shops, automotive garages, and manufacturing facilities. Its compact design allows it to fit into tight spaces where larger unions might not work. By utilizing high-grade brass, ESAB ensures that this part maintains its structural integrity even under fluctuating pressures and temperatures common in welding environments.
