    What is the angle of the flare for the MFL connection that is commonly used in beer equipment? 37 (JIC) or 45 (SAE).

    Digging around on McMaster looking for a MFL to Pipe thread adapter and am finding a few candidates but there are two different flare types.

    AN is Army Navy. Established standards for US military aviation. Pre WW2, still in use.
