Threaded to 3\/8 NPTF standards, this fitting accepts hose with a 1\/4 inch inner diameter and a 9\/16 inch outer diameter. The NPTF thread form creates a pressure-tight mechanical seal without relying solely on thread sealant, making it a dependable choice for hydraulic, pneumatic, and general fluid lines. Weighing just 0.1 pounds, the MSC1834096K is compact and straightforward to install. Its reusable design allows the fitting to be removed and reinstalled, reducing replacement costs in maintenance-intensive environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is suited for residential, commercial, and light industrial plumbing and fluid transfer systems where a reliable male-threaded hose termination is required. Typical applications include compressed air lines, water service connections, and hydraulic hose assemblies. Plumbers, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians commonly specify NPTF male fittings like this one when assembling or repairing hose-to-pipe connections that must hold pressure without additional sealing compound.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/8 NPTF male thread provides a dry-seal, pressure-tight connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccepts hose with 1\/4 inch ID and 9\/16 inch OD for a secure mechanical grip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReusable construction supports removal and reinstallation without damage to the fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.1 pounds, minimizing added load on hose assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold individually, allowing single-unit replacement or targeted repair\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for hose assemblies requiring a 3\/8 NPTF male thread connection with a 1\/4 inch hose ID and 9\/16 inch hose OD.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC or IFGC guidelines for the specific fluid service. Depressurize and isolate the hose or line completely before removing any existing fitting. NPTF threads are designed for dry-seal assembly, but consult the system manufacturer's guidelines regarding the use of thread sealant for the fluid type involved. Do not overtighten, as excessive torque can distort the fitting or damage the hose end.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Gender\u003c\/strong\u003e: Male\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHose Inner Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHose Outer Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\/16 inches\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\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: MSC1834096K\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"DIXON VALVE \u0026 COUPLING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51697557733682,"sku":"MSC1834096K","price":23.03,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4f5502e5a45f01c7e516598d9cf64eef.jpg?v=1788352810","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/dixon-valve-coupling-msc1834096k-reusable-male-hose-fitting","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
