Tested to 50lbs. Bowl is cadmium plated and top and collar are anodized for corrosion protection. Top has 1/4" pipe ports for 3/8" fuel line and one 1/8" pipe port for primer fitting.

very well made and affordable
Nice compact gascolator, good quality of construction. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is it would be better if it had a way to safety wire the bowl locking ring.
Very high quality fit and finish. I would have given 5 stars but the design provides no positive provisions for mounting it. Other than suspending it from the fittings (generally a poor way to go) theres no threaded bosses or tabs to attach a good mount to.
Per the manufacturer, the high pressure unit (part # 05-04248) does not use the same bracket as the regular unit. It uses the Gascolator Mounting Flange found in the "Accessories" tab (part # 05-00907).
Yes, it works in low and high pressure applications.
No, this gascolator is not FAA Approved. It is intended for use in experimental aircraft only.
Per the supplier: Top has 1/4" pipe ports for 3/8" fuel line and one 1/8" pipe port for primer fitting.It is tested to 50 PSI, but we do not have a fuel flow rate.
Yes, they both share the same dimensions.
Yes, this will work as this will have 1/4" NPT ports and AN840-6D has a 1/4" NPT thread.
