Boshart FFLF-FA-14FLX12FPT 7/8" Flare x 3/4" FPT Adapter Fitting
The Boshart FFLF-FA-14FLX12FPT is a rough-in adapter fitting built to transition between a 7/8" flare (FL) connection and a 3/4" female pipe thread (FPT) connection. This type of adapter is used by plumbing and gas-fitting professionals to connect flared tubing runs — such as those used on flexible gas connectors or water heater flex lines — to standard threaded pipe or fixture connections. As a behind-the-wall or under-appliance transition fitting, it is designed to be installed as part of a rough-in supply or gas line assembly, not as a visible decorative fixture component.
Key Features
- Connection Sizing: 7/8" flare (FL) end sized to mate with flexible flare-style tubing connectors.
- Threaded Connection: 3/4" female pipe thread (FPT) end for direct connection to male-threaded pipe, valves, or fixture fittings.
- Adapter Configuration: Flare-to-FPT transition design allows flexible flare connectors to be joined directly to standard threaded rough-in plumbing or gas piping without additional reducing fittings.
- Rough-In Application: Intended for use in concealed or under-appliance installations where a flare connection must transition to a threaded pipe run.
- Single-Piece Fitting: Simplifies the connection between flexible flare tubing and rigid threaded piping in one adapter body.
