Dixon Valve Coupling MSCAMC1 Hose Coupling 1/4 in Npt

Product Description

The DIXON VALVE COUPLING MSCAMC1 is a universal hose coupling with female NPT ends, constructed from malleable iron for durability in demanding fluid and air transfer applications. Threaded to a 1/4 inch NPT standard, this coupling is rated for up to 150 psi working pressure. It is designed for use in plumbing, compressed air, and general-purpose fluid handling systems. Plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial maintenance technicians are the primary installers. The malleable iron body provides the structural integrity needed for threaded connections that are tightened and repositioned repeatedly in the field without cracking or deforming.

This coupling is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a reliable female NPT connection is needed to join hose assemblies or pipe sections. It fits standard 1/4 inch NPT-threaded fittings and works across a range of compressed air, water, and compatible fluid service lines. The compact form factor and universal design make it a practical choice for maintenance kits, service trucks, and shop plumbing setups where a standard NPT hose end coupling is needed without a proprietary thread or quick-connect system.

Key Features

• Female NPT ends on both sides for straightforward threaded hose or pipe connection
• Malleable iron construction withstands mechanical stress and repeated use
• 1/4 inch NPT thread standard for broad compatibility with common fittings
• Rated to 150 psi maximum working pressure
• Compact and lightweight at 0.1 pounds for easy handling and storage

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install fitting for standard 1/4 inch NPT hose and pipe systems in compressed air, water, and general fluid transfer service.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Shut off all system pressure and depressurize the line before threading or removing any fittings. Apply thread sealant tape or compound to NPT threads per IPC guidelines before making up the connection. Do not overtighten malleable iron fittings, as the material can crack under excessive torque.
