Question by: Phil A on Dec 17, 2025, 9:30 AM
got 1/2 inch air brake tubing already on the truck, will this fitting thread into a 1/4-18 npt port?
Answer by: Customer Support on Dec 19, 2025, 6:59 AM
Fits 0.50 inch tube OD on the push to connect side and has 1/4-18 male NPT threads on the other side, so it’s meant to go into a 1/4-18 NPT female port.
