Dixon Valve Coupling MSC1870610K Brass Hose Splicer

Product Description

The DIXON VALVE COUPLING MSC1870610K is a reusable brass hose splicer designed to join two hose sections with a 3/8 inch inner diameter and 5/8 inch outer diameter. At 2.59 inches in overall length and weighing just 0.1 pounds, this fitting is compact and lightweight while delivering a durable, leak-resistant connection. Brass construction provides corrosion resistance and long service life in wet or chemically active environments. Plumbers, irrigation technicians, and general trade professionals install this type of fitting when a permanent hose repair or extension is needed without replacing the full hose assembly.

This splicer is suited for low-pressure fluid transfer and general hose maintenance applications across residential and light commercial settings. Typical use cases include repairing a damaged hose section or joining two compatible hose segments during field service. The reusable design allows the fitting to be removed and reinstalled, reducing material waste on recurring service calls. It is compatible with hose assemblies meeting the 3/8 inch ID and 5/8 inch OD dimensional requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by plumbers, irrigation technicians, or mechanical trade professionals. Depressurize and drain the hose line completely before removing any fittings or cutting into the hose. Ensure hose ends are cut cleanly and squarely for a proper seat against the splicer barbs. Follow applicable IPC or local plumbing codes when installing in potable water or regulated fluid systems.
