A standpipe assembly for a rotorcraft (100) includes a slip ring (204) positioned within the mast (114) of the rotorcraft (100). The slip ring (204) includes a stator (304) rotationally connected to a rotor (302). A flexible coupling (202) is connected to the stator (304) and a standpipe tube (206) is connected to the flexible coupling (202). The flexible coupling (202) is capable of angular, axial, and torsional displacement.
