Pneumatic Quick Connect Coupling Adaptor, Threaded Male 1/4", Brass
Brief Overview
This brass pneumatic quick-connect coupling adaptor delivers reliable, leak-resistant connections for 1/4" pneumatic systems. The male threaded design allows for permanent installation into equipment or manifolds, while the quick-disconnect plug mechanism enables rapid hose attachment and removal without tool requirement. Designed for professional pneumatic applications where efficiency and repeatability matter—pair this with female quick-connect counterparts or larger 1/2-inch adapters to build complete system configurations for your customers.
Key Features
- Brass Construction: Yellow-gold finish resists corrosion and oxidation in workshop and industrial environments
- 1/4" Male Thread: External threaded connection for permanent manifold or equipment mounting
- Quick-Disconnect Plug: Snap-lock circumferential groove design enables tool-free hose connection and disconnection
- Hexagonal Wrench Shoulder: Machined flat for secure tightening and wrench-friendly installation into threaded ports
- Hollow Bore Design: Full internal flow pathway for unrestricted air passage
- Machined Precision: Smooth cylindrical plug geometry ensures consistent, repeatable engagement with female couplers
Business Advantages
For Distributors:
- High-velocity stock item for pneumatic system integrators, auto shops, and manufacturing facilities
- Brass material commands better margins than plastic alternatives while offering superior durability
- Compact footprint allows economical bulk stocking across warehouse shelves
- Complements broader quick-connect coupling inventory—customers purchasing one size often need multiple thread sizes
For End Users:
- Eliminates downtime associated with traditional screw-thread connections

Application Context
This adapter serves as the fixed end of quick-connect pneumatic systems. Thread it into equipment ports, manifold blocks, or air distribution panels; hose-mounted female couplers then snap on and off instantly. Ideal for:
- Production lines requiring frequent hose repositioning
- Pneumatic tool stations with multiple work areas
- Mobile compressor setups demanding rapid connections
- Industrial equipment where downtime equals lost revenue
Stock this adaptor in your catalog as a foundational pneumatic component. Distributors report steady demand from shops upgrading legacy threaded-only systems to modern quick-disconnect infrastructure. Pair with female adapters and threaded couplings to maximize order value and customer system completeness.
