This Dixon DCB series brass Air Chief industrial interchange quick-connect automatic air hose coupler has a barbed hose ID end, shuts off when disconnected, , and connects a hose to an Air Chief industrial interchange quick connect plug. The barbed hose ID connection fits inside the hose, has a greater hold than non-barbed connections. Brass provides corrosion resistance, ductility at high temperatures, and low magnetic permeability. This fitting's maximum working pressure (MWP) is 300 pounds per square inch (psi) (20.41 bar) in a temperature range from -40 to +250 degrees F (-40 to +121.11 degrees C). This automatic coupler allows one handed, push-to-connect operation and shuts off when disconnected. The coupler meets MIL-C-4109F/A-A-59439 specifications for quick-disconnect coupling halves for hoses and portable pneumatic tools. This air service only coupler is used for applications such as pneumatic tools, tire inflation, and general purpose air handling in industrial operations.
