Dixon Valve Coupling MSC1835094K Reusable Hose Male Fitting

Product Description

The DIXON VALVE COUPLING MSC1835094K is a reusable male hose fitting designed for secure, field-serviceable connections in fluid transfer applications. It features a 1/4 inch NPTF male thread, accommodating hose with a 5/16 inch inner diameter and a 9/16 inch outer diameter. The NPTF thread standard provides a pressure-tight, dryseal connection without the need for additional sealant tape in many applications. Weighing just 0.1 pounds, this fitting is compact and lightweight. It is intended for plumbers, pipefitters, and fluid system technicians who require a dependable, reusable fitting that can be disassembled and reinstalled without replacing the hose end.

This fitting is suited for use in industrial, commercial, and light-duty fluid transfer systems where hose lines connect to threaded male ports. The reusable design makes it appropriate for maintenance-heavy environments where hose ends are inspected, replaced, or reconfigured on a regular service cycle. It is compatible with hoses in the 5/16 inch ID and 9/16 inch OD range and is well-suited for low-pressure hydraulic, air, or general fluid transfer lines. The NPTF thread ensures a reliable seal on standard pipe thread ports.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, or qualified fluid system technicians. Depressurize and drain the hose line completely before disassembling or installing any fitting. Hand-tighten the NPTF thread to start, then use appropriate wrenches to achieve a proper dryseal engagement without overtightening. Follow applicable codes and the hose manufacturer's guidelines for maximum working pressure and temperature limits.
