Question by: Roger W on Dec 30, 2025, 3:46 PM
got a worn out quick disconnect on my air compressor setup, would this male half with the 1/4-18 npt fit right in as a swap?
Answer by: Customer Support on Jan 1, 2026, 1:27 PM
It matches up with standard industrial interchange designs under MIL-C-4109, so yeah, it'll plug into compatible female halves for air applications, especially if your current one's from Danfoss or Eaton Hansen in those series.
Question by: Daryl H on Oct 16, 2025, 11:48 AM
Does this quick disconnect work with standard air hoses?
Answer by: Customer Support on Oct 18, 2025, 6:18 AM
Yes, this male half quick disconnect with a 1/4-18 Male NPT fitting is compatible with standard air hoses that support the same size and thread type. It's designed for ease of use in various industrial applications, making it a reliable choice for your air system needs.
Question by: Howard A on Aug 14, 2025, 7:52 AM
Will this plug fit standard air hose fittings?
Answer by: Customer Support on Aug 16, 2025, 6:03 AM
This male half quick disconnect is made to the MIL-C-4109 industrial interchange standard, so it should work with any female coupler also made to that spec. Just make sure the size (-04) and thread (1/4-18 Male NPT) are compatible with your existing setup.
