The right fitting extension

[CanosSSCS]

Hello all,

I am looking for a type of fitting that will allow me to slightly increase the length between a male fitting and thread, something like a bushing. I have a CPC to 3/8 NPT male fitting, and I need an adaptor of sorts that would go between the male and female mates. Preferable made out of brass. Fluid travels between the fittings. Any advice appreciate it.

Thanks.

What's the dimension of the gap need to be covered?
Sometimes, depending on the gap distance, it may be difficult to find the right fittings to make up the space for it. Instead, one may cut off some existing piece and remake it with right dimension.

Would a 3/8" brass MxF adapter not be the fitting you describe? You can get this type of fitting as a reducing bushing or a straight adapter.

Rputvin thank you for the link. This fitting/adapter is exactly what we are looking for, except the material has changed. We actually the same part in Al or SS. I've done some digging around but can only find the brass verison.

Canos,
Here's the same fitting in 316SS from McMaster. This one is slightly longer.
