Dixon Valve Coupling MSC1854084K Female Swivel Fitting

Product Description

The DIXON VALVE COUPLING MSC1854084K is a reusable brass female swivel fitting designed for hose-end connections in fluid transfer applications. It features a 1/4 inch NPSM thread and accepts hose with a 1/4 inch inner diameter and a 1/2 inch outer diameter. The swivel design allows the fitting to rotate during installation, reducing hose twist and making hand-tightening faster and more precise. Weighing just 0.1 pounds, this lightweight brass fitting is well suited for low-volume plumbing, pneumatic, or light-duty hydraulic service lines where a reliable threaded female connection is required.

This fitting is used in residential and commercial plumbing, pneumatic tool connections, and industrial fluid transfer lines where a reusable hose end fitting with a female swivel thread is needed. The NPSM thread standard provides a straight mechanical thread engagement, making it compatible with standard NPSM male fittings found on valves, manifolds, and equipment ports. Technicians working on compressed air lines, water service hoses, or light chemical transfer systems will find this fitting appropriate for routine maintenance and new installations.

Key Features

• Reusable construction allows removal and reinstallation without replacing the fitting

Compatibility

Designed as a reusable female swivel hose end fitting for 1/4 inch ID by 1/2 inch OD hose with 1/4 inch NPSM threaded connections. Suitable for use with standard NPSM male fittings in compatible plumbing and pneumatic assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by plumbers, pipefitters, or qualified maintenance technicians. Shut off and depressurize the line fully before disassembling any hose fitting. NPSM threads are straight and do not self-seal, so a compatible sealing method appropriate to the fluid service should be applied at the thread interface. Inspect hose OD and ID dimensions before assembly to confirm proper seating within the fitting body.
