AN male – metric male

Here you will find our range of blue AN nipple adaptors with metric thread. All our AN nipple adaptors are made of aluminium with an anodised surface treatment, which not only looks really good, but also helps provide the aluminium with optimal corrosion protection. They are typically stock items and are dispatched the same day as ordering.

Nipple adaptors are available with several thread types, including BSP, metric and NPT. As the difference between the three types with the same diameter is very small, it can be an advantage to measure the thread before ordering. You can use our thread chart guide to determine which type you need.

Metric threads typically require a sealing washer or other separate sealing solution. Do not use ordinary copper washers for aluminium AN fittings, as copper and aluminium do not work well together and can cause corrosion of the aluminium.
