Description

Sensors speak NPT, Radium hardware speaks ORB, and one small fitting settles the conversation.

The Radium Engineering 6AN ORB to 1/8" NPT Female Adapter Fitting threads into any female 6AN ORB (9/16"-18) port, sealing on an FKM O-ring, and presents a 1/8" NPT female port for a pressure sender, gauge, or temperature sensor. It is the standard way to put instrumentation on a Radium rail, regulator, damper, or filter port without sacrificing the sealed ORB architecture.

What You'll Feel

  • A sensor port exactly where your data needs to come from
  • An O-ring sealed base connection unaffected by the sensor swaps above it
  • Compatibility with the huge universe of 1/8" NPT senders and gauges
  • E85-proof FKM sealing on the ORB side

Features

  • 6AN ORB (9/16"-18) male thread with FKM O-ring, all fuel and oil types
  • 1/8" NPT female sensor port
  • Machined anodized aluminum construction
  • Fits Radium components with 6AN ORB ports

The Details

This fitting carries both thread standards, so treat each by its own rule: the ORB end seals on its O-ring, which should be lubricated with O-ring lube, petroleum jelly, or oil before installation and needs no sealant, while the NPT end is a tapered thread that always requires PTFE thread sealant paste when the sensor goes in. Common homes include the spare port on a Radium fuel rail for a pressure sender, a regulator gauge port, or a filter cap for pre/post filtration pressure checks. Sensor and sealant not included. Sold individually.
