Uflex 171CA-6-4 Male Run Tee Fitting 3/8" x 3/8" Tube x 1/4" NPT

The Uflex 171CA-6-4 is a precision-engineered male run tee fitting designed for marine hydraulic steering systems. This brass compression fitting creates a reliable branch connection, allowing you to connect a 1/4" NPT female port device (such as a helm pump) to your hydraulic hose lines while maintaining continuous flow through the main run.

Key Specifications:

• Configuration: 3/8" tube x 3/8" tube x 1/4" NPT male
• Helm side connection: 1/4" NPT male threads
• Hose side connections: 9/16"-24 UNEF 2A compression threads
• Material: Marine-grade brass construction
• Compatible with 3/8" OD hydraulic tubing

Typical Application:

This tee fitting is commonly used in marine steering systems to connect helm pumps or other accessories with 1/4" NPT female ports to Uflex hydraulic hoses. The run-through design maintains full flow to the primary steering components while providing a secure branch connection. Ideal for both new installations and retrofit applications on boats, yachts, and other marine vessels.

The compression-style connections on the tube sides provide leak-free performance without the need for flaring, while the NPT threads ensure a secure, sealed connection to helm-side components.
