How to Identify and Measure Fittings
Pipe size is an industry designation, not the actual size. View information about how to measure threaded and unthreaded pipe and pipe fittings.

Industrial Quick-Disconnect Hose Couplings for Air
A complete coupling consists of a plug and a socket (both sold separately or in a set) that connect and disconnect quickly. Use them if you need frequent access to a line. They are also known as industrial interchange couplings. All Industrial plugs are compatible with any of the Industrial sockets of the same coupling size, regardless of the pipe size or barbed hose ID.
Brass is softer than other metals, so it’s easier to thread together. It has good corrosion resistance. 303 stainless steel has very good corrosion resistance, so it’s the best choice for high-humidity environments.
NPTF (Dryseal) threads are compatible with NPT threads.
Note: To ensure a correct fit, make sure that the plug and socket have the same coupling size.

- Maximum Pressure: 300 psi @ 72° F
- Temperature Range: -40° to 225° F
- Specifications Met: See table
Sockets have a shut-off valve that stops the flow when the coupling is separated, so air won’t leak from the line.
Push-to-connect sockets join by forcefully pushing the plug and socket together until you hear a click. Unlike sleeve-lock sockets, you should not slide back the sleeve to connect. To disconnect, slide the sleeve on the socket forward until the plug ejects.

Sleeve-lock sockets connect by sliding back the sleeve on the socket, inserting the plug, and releasing the sleeve. To disconnect, slide the sleeve back and pull out the plug.
Tru-Flate Quick-Disconnect Hose Couplings for Air
A complete coupling consists of a plug and a socket (both sold separately or in a set) that connect and disconnect quickly. Use them if you need frequent access to a line. All Tru-Flate plugs are compatible with any of the Tru-Flate sockets of the same coupling size, regardless of the pipe size or barbed hose ID. They are also known as automotive couplings.

Zinc-plated steel is stronger and more durable than other metals. It has fair corrosion resistance, so it should be used primarily in dry environments. NPTF (Dryseal) threads are compatible with NPT threads.
Note: To ensure a correct fit, make sure that the plug and socket have the same coupling size.

Metal Push-On Barbed Hose Fittings for Air and Water
Fittings have sharper barbs than standard barbed hose fittings to grip rubber push-on hose with no clamps or ferrules required. The more you pull on the fittings, the tighter the hose will grip.
Brass fittings are softer than other metal fittings, so they’re easier to thread together. They have good corrosion resistance.Fittings with a threaded end are also known as hose nipples.
Note: To ensure proper connection, the barbed end has to be pushed in all the way, with the hose end concealed by the ring.

Quick-Clamp High-Vacuum Fittings for Stainless Steel Tubing
- For Use With:
Fittings with Gasket End: Air, Argon, Helium, Nitrogen
All Other Fittings: Air - Specifications Met: ISO 2861
Instead of a gasket, these fittings have a metal-reinforced O-ring that is designed for high-vacuum applications, such as vacuum coating and heat treating, leak testing, and analyzing gases. Also known as KF, QF, and NW fittings, they are the most common type of connection in high-vacuum systems. Connect with a clamp and another quick-clamp fitting for fast, easy access to your line. To use fittings in pressure applications, use a pressure-rated ring (sold separately). Made of 304 stainless steel, these fittings have very good corrosion resistance.
Note: To complete a connection, you’ll need two quick-clamp fittings, a ring, and a clamp (all sold separately).

- Temperature Range: 0° to 300° F
- Tubing: Use with 304/304L or 316/316L stainless steel
Fittings with threaded pipe end require PTFE tape for sealing the threads.

Valves are also known as vacuum isolation valves. They connect to a vacuum system so you can install gauges, release gases, and remove air. They operate manually and have a compact body that fits easily into tight spaces.
