Dixon Valve Coupling MSC1856126K Female Swivel Fitting

Product Description

The DIXON VALVE COUPLING MSC1856126K is a reusable female swivel hose fitting designed for threaded fluid-transfer connections in plumbing, industrial, and maintenance applications. Built from brass, this fitting accepts a 3/8 inch hose inner diameter and fits over a 3/4 inch hose outer diameter. The swivel design allows the fitting body to rotate independently of the threaded connection, reducing hose twist and torque stress during assembly. The 3/8 inch NPSM thread pattern provides a standard straight mechanical thread engagement. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and maintenance mechanics install this type of fitting where a secure, reusable hose end connection is required.

This fitting is suited for low- to medium-pressure fluid transfer lines in residential and light commercial settings. Typical applications include water supply hoses, compressed-air service lines, and general-purpose liquid transfer setups. The brass construction offers good corrosion resistance for use with water, air, and many common non-aggressive fluids. The reusable design means the fitting can be removed and reinstalled without replacing the hose end, making it practical for service and maintenance work where hoses are periodically changed out.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified maintenance mechanics following applicable IPC and facility maintenance standards. Shut off fluid supply and relieve all line pressure before removing or installing hose fittings. Inspect hose end for cuts, abrasion, or deformation before seating the fitting. Do not overtighten the swivel nut, as brass threads can gall or strip under excessive force.
