Built from brass, this fitting accepts a 1\/4 inch hose ID and connects via a 1\/4 inch NPSM threaded interface. At 2 inches in overall length and weighing 0.1 pounds, it is a compact, field-reusable component suited for technicians who need a reliable threaded connection without single-use limitations. The NPSM thread standard provides a straight mechanical thread engagement, making it appropriate for applications where a non-tapered, pressure-assisted seal is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is used in light commercial and industrial fluid handling lines where 1\/4 inch hose assemblies are common. Typical applications include compressed air distribution, water service lines, and general fluid transfer systems. Plumbers and industrial service technicians install this fitting when a reusable, female-threaded hose end is needed for maintenance or frequent hose change-out scenarios. Its brass construction provides good corrosion resistance for use with water, air, and many common non-aggressive fluids.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReusable design allows hose removal and reinstallation without replacing the fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrass construction offers corrosion resistance for water and air service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch NPSM straight thread for secure mechanical engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact 2 inch overall length for use in tight installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThreaded connection type for tool-assisted, leak-resistant assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style reusable female hose fitting for 1\/4 inch hose ID applications using the NPSM thread standard in plumbing and industrial fluid transfer systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified industrial service technicians. Shut off fluid supply and depressurize the line before disassembling or installing any hose fitting. NPSM threads are straight and require a compatible straight-thread female or male coupling for proper seating. Apply thread sealant or appropriate gasket material per the system requirements and applicable IPC guidelines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\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: NPSM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHose ID\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGender\u003c\/strong\u003e: Female\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 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\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 1840404A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"DIXON VALVE \u0026 COUPLING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51697635328306,"sku":"1840404A","price":21.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9e3686555ffef79f5268241e2afd243a.jpg?v=1788353627","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/dixon-valve-coupling-1840404a-female-hose-fitting-1-4-npsm","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
