It features a 9\/16 inch left-hand thread in UNF standard, which is the industry-standard thread direction for fuel gas connections to prevent accidental interchange with oxygen fittings. The left-hand thread is a critical safety design element recognized across welding and cutting applications. This coupling is installed by certified welding technicians and plumbing professionals working with oxy-fuel cutting and welding systems. It accepts a 1\/4 inch inner diameter hose and provides a secure threaded connection between the hose and regulator or torch fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis coupling is used in residential, commercial, and industrial welding environments wherever acetylene hose assemblies require a reliable threaded end fitting. It is suited for oxy-acetylene cutting, welding, and brazing setups. The compact, lightweight brass construction makes it appropriate for both shop and field installations. Technicians replacing worn or damaged hose end fittings on acetylene supply lines will find this a direct-fit threaded coupling solution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLeft-hand UNF thread — standard for acetylene and fuel gas connections per industry safety practice\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e9\/16 inch thread size for secure hose-to-regulator or hose-to-torch connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch inner diameter hose compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction for corrosion resistance and durability in gas service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded connection type for positive, leak-resistant assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact and lightweight at 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement threaded coupling for acetylene welding hose assemblies requiring a 9\/16 inch left-hand UNF threaded end fitting with 1\/4 inch inner diameter hose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified welding technician or pipefitter familiar with fuel gas hose assembly practices. Shut off the acetylene supply at the cylinder valve and bleed the hose before removing any fittings. Left-hand threads tighten counterclockwise — do not force right-hand tools or techniques on this fitting. Verify all connections are leak-free with an approved leak-detection solution before returning the system to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\/16 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Left-hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHose Inner Diameter\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\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Acetylene welding hose line\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40141734\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: MSC1540409K\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"DIXON VALVE \u0026 COUPLING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51713269170482,"sku":"MSC1540409K","price":18.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/41f08d6dca447dc58f90116ab62573f8.jpg?v=1788492426","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/dixon-valve-coupling-msc1540409k-welding-hose-coupling","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
