Description

Quick Connector – 1/2-Inch GW Male Thread, Brass

Brief Overview

This one-piece brass quick connector is engineered for pneumatic and fluid transfer systems requiring dependable, leak-free couplings. The GW (male thread) configuration provides a secure interface with standard 1/2-inch quick-coupler sockets. Built from solid brass for corrosion resistance and durability, it's an essential component for shop air systems, fluid lines, and pressurized applications. Stock this connector alongside 1/2-inch quick-coupler bodies with internal threads and alternate material options in nickel-plated steel to offer your customers a complete coupling system.

Key Features

  • One-piece brass construction – Corrosion-resistant and suitable for long-term outdoor or wet environments
  • Machined locking grooves – Two circumferential ridges engage the quick-coupler socket for positive retention and zero-slip connection
  • Hexagonal wrench flats – Enables hand-tool tightening and easy removal without specialized tools
  • 1/2-inch GW male thread – Standard industrial size compatible with most quick-coupler systems
  • Compact design – Minimizes installation footprint in tight spaces

Business Advantages

This connector addresses a critical reseller margin opportunity. Quick-coupler systems are consumables in the sense that they're frequently replaced due to wear, loss, or system expansion. Unlike one-time purchases, shops routinely replenish couplings, creating reliable repeat orders. Brass versions command a premium over steel alternatives due to corrosion resistance, particularly in outdoor or marine-adjacent applications. Stock depth in 1/2-inch sizes ensures you capture high-volume orders from HVAC, pneumatic tool rental, and fluid-handling operations.
