Cpc Colder Products PLCD16004NA Hose Barb Female Socket

Product Description

The CPC COLDER PRODUCTS PLCD16004NA is a panel mount hose barb female socket coupling designed for fluid handling systems requiring a secure, leak-resistant disconnect point at a panel or bulkhead. Built from acetal (POM) with a Buna-N o-ring, this fitting accepts 0.25-inch inside diameter tubing and delivers a 0.25-inch nominal flow path. It is rated to 120 psi maximum working pressure and handles temperatures from -40 degrees F to 180 degrees F. The shutoff valve configuration automatically closes flow when disconnected, preventing fluid loss during maintenance or line changes. HVAC technicians, plumbers, and fluid system installers use this type of fitting in coolant lines, process fluid circuits, and similar low-to-medium pressure plumbing applications.

This fitting is suited for panel or bulkhead mounting in both residential and light commercial fluid systems. The female socket receiver mates with a compatible male insert plug to form a complete quick-disconnect coupling. Typical installations include equipment cooling loops, chilled water distribution panels, and any system where a panel-mounted fluid disconnect point is required. The acetal construction resists many common coolants and process fluids, making it a practical choice for controlled-environment plumbing and equipment service connections.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style panel mount quick-disconnect coupling for use in fluid handling systems requiring a 0.25-inch nominal flow female socket with hose barb connection. Mates with a compatible male insert plug of the same nominal flow size.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers or qualified fluid system technicians. Shut off and depressurize the fluid circuit completely before installing or removing any coupling. Ensure the panel or bulkhead cutout matches the mounting dimensions required for this fitting, and verify o-ring seating before pressurizing the system. Follow applicable plumbing codes and equipment manufacturer guidelines for fluid system connections.
