Pneumatic Quick Connect Coupling Adaptor for 8mm Hose with Nipple

Overview

This is a straightforward, no-nonsense pneumatic quick-connect coupling designed for 8mm hose applications. The chrome-plated metal construction provides durability and corrosion resistance in standard shop environments. The assembly features a faceted conical collar, hexagonal wrench flats for hand-wrench tightening, and a barbed nipple with dual locking grooves—the core design that enables quick disconnect and reconnect without losing air pressure or fluid.

For shops stocking pneumatic line connections, this pairs well with complementary sizes like the 6mm quick-connect nipple adaptor or the 8mm barbed connector with knurled grip for flexible line assembly options.

Key Features

• Chrome-plated metal construction – Bright, reflective finish resists corrosion and maintains appearance under regular use
• 8mm hose nipple – Direct fit for standard 8mm pneumatic hose sizes
• Hexagonal wrench flats – Allows secure tightening and removal with standard wrenches; prevents rotation during connection
• Dual locking grooves – Ensures positive locking and reliable hold under operating pressure
• Faceted conical collar – Guides hose insertion and provides structural integrity to the coupling body
• Two-piece disassembly design – Nipple separates from outer sleeve for cleaning or replacement if needed

Business Advantages for Resellers

• High-velocity inventory turnover – Quick-connect couplings are consumables in any pneumatic shop; customers return regularly for replacements and additional sizes
• Low cost, high margin – Compact, simple design keeps acquisition cost minimal while supporting healthy reseller margins
• Essential stock item – Shops cannot operate pneumatic tools without working line connections; this becomes a "must-stock" product
• Bulk order potential – Garages, fleet maintenance, and industrial workshops buy these in multiples (mix of sizes) for spares and preventive stocking

Why Stock This Product

Pneumatic line integrity directly impacts shop efficiency. A coupling that leaks or fails to hold creates downtime and frustration. This design—with its proven locking-groove geometry and hand-wrench-friendly hexagonal flats—eliminates guesswork during installation. The chrome finish maintains its appearance through repeated use, protecting your shop's professional image.

For resellers, 8mm couplings are a "bread and butter" line item. Stock it, and you'll sell it regularly.
