Description

Quick Hose Connector 8 x 10 mm

Overview

This is a robust quick-disconnect hose connector engineered for reliable, leak-free coupling in pneumatic and fluid transfer systems. The 8 x 10 mm specification makes it ideal for mid-range flow applications where space and connection speed matter. If your customers work with compressed air systems, you should also consider stocking complementary sizes like the 8mm variant with barbed tail and the 10mm coupling with hose barb to cover the full range of pneumatic applications.

Key Features

  • Nickel-Plated Brass Body: Corrosion-resistant finish ensures long service life in workshop and industrial environments.
  • Internal Valve Seat: Brass or hardened steel valve mechanism prevents backflow and maintains system pressure when disconnected.
  • Knurled Grip Bands: Textured mid-section and knurled sleeve provide secure, non-slip handling even with gloved hands or in wet conditions.
  • Hexagonal Wrench Flats: Allows tool-assisted tightening and loosening; prevents damage from over-hand-tightening.
  • Tapered Conical Front: Precision-engineered nose ensures smooth insertion and positive lock with compatible hose barbs or nipples.
  • Integrated Rubber O-Ring Seal: Dark sealing ring visible in the tip creates a pressure-tight connection without additional sealant tape.
  • Flanged Rear Female Socket: Reinforced opening with flat mounting ring for stable attachment to hose or system ports.

Business Advantages for Resellers

  • High-Volume Demand: Quick-disconnect couplings are consumed regularly across automotive shops, pneumatic tool users, and industrial maintenance operations—ensuring consistent reorder traffic.
  • Competitive Margin Opportunity: Mid-range sizes (8–10 mm) sit at the sweet spot of high demand and healthy wholesale pricing.
  • Cross-Sell Potential: Stock multiple sizes (6, 8, 10, 12 mm) to capture full-system builds and upgrade orders.
  • Low Defect Rate: Brass construction and simple design mean minimal warranty claims and customer satisfaction.
  • Essential Maintenance Item: Shops replace couplings regularly due to wear, seal degradation, and system modifications—predictable repeat business.

Practical Application Notes

  • Compressed Air Systems: Ideal for pneumatic tool connections, air line couplings, and workshop quick-disconnect setups.
  • Fluid Transfer: Compatible with low-pressure fluid systems (coolant, lubricant, or water lines) in automotive and machining shops.
  • Fast Disconnect Requirement: Perfect for applications where operators need to swap hose configurations quickly without spillage.
  • Tool-Assisted Installation: Use the hexagonal flats with a wrench to prevent cross-threading and ensure leak-free seals.

Why This Connector Matters to Your Customers

Professional mechanics and maintenance technicians rely on quick connectors to reduce downtime. A quality 8 x 10 mm connector delivers:

  • Immediate Connection: No threading or fumbling—push and lock.
  • Zero Leakage: The internal valve seat and O-ring seal prevent loss of pressure or fluid between uses.
  • Durability Under Use: Nickel-plated brass withstands repeated connect/disconnect cycles, vibration, and light abrasion without degradation.

Recommendation for Your Inventory

Stock this connector as part of a broader quick-disconnect lineup. Bundle it with the 6mm and 8mm variants for customers building complete pneumatic systems or upgrading existing tool lines. Volume purchasing of multiple sizes attracts professional buyers and increases basket value per order.
