Constructed from brass, this fitting delivers reliable sealing in threaded fluid or air line assemblies. At 1.86 inches overall length and weighing just 0.1 pounds, it is a compact, field-serviceable component suited for hydraulic, pneumatic, and general-purpose fluid transfer systems. The NPTF thread standard provides a pressure-tight mechanical seal without relying solely on sealant tape. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial maintenance technicians commonly specify this type of fitting for reusable hose end assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is appropriate for use in residential and light commercial fluid transfer lines where a 1\/4 inch inside diameter hose connects to a threaded port. Typical applications include compressed air lines, hydraulic hose assemblies, and general service fluid systems that require periodic hose replacement without discarding the stem. The reusable design allows the stem to be removed, inspected, and reinstalled with a new hose section, reducing material cost on repeat service calls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReusable design allows stem to be reinstalled with replacement hose sections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction provides corrosion resistance in air and fluid service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch NPTF thread delivers a pressure-tight mechanical seal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact 1.86 inch overall length suits tight installation spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded connection type for straightforward assembly and removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style reusable male stem fitting for 1\/4 inch inside diameter hose assemblies with standard 1\/4 inch NPTF threaded ports.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, or qualified maintenance technicians. Depressurize and drain the hose line completely before disassembling or installing any fitting. NPTF threads are designed to seal on the thread form itself, but applying a compatible thread sealant is common practice depending on the service fluid and applicable codes. Inspect the hose end for cuts or deformation before reusing the stem to ensure a leak-free assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e: Male Stem\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHose ID\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.86 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: DIXON VALVE COUPLING\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1820404S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"DIXON VALVE \u0026 COUPLING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51698962465074,"sku":"1820404S","price":15.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6c1a38d54e3890d6d9a76e730f562380.jpg?v=1788370421","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/dixon-valve-coupling-1820404s-hose-male-stem-1-4-nptf","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
