Gentlemen;I bought a injector nozzle "POP" tester to test my injector pressure release pressures.I had to adapt the high pressure piping from the tester to the nozzle.After several trips to Lowe's without success I realized that my many hydraulic fitting laying around the shop might work.After all, both systems are hydraulically high pressure,(1950 PSI")
SUCCESS ! The pressure feed from the injector pump to the nozzle fitting has a 9/16-18 SAE 6 straight thread O-ring boss thread pattern (nominal 3/8).And I just happened to have one that adapted to the 1/2 Iron Pipe size (IPS) thread from the "POP" tester.
SURPLUS CENTER sells these and also has a thread ID chart to show the specifics. ENJOY !
