Ingersoll Rand ASA-1/4 Pneumatic Swivel Fitting 1/4 Npt

Product Description

The INGERSOLL RAND ASA-1/4 is a pneumatic swivel hose fitting designed for use in compressed air systems. It features a 1/4 inch NPT thread and is constructed from aluminum and steel, combining lightweight handling with durable wear surfaces at the swivel joint. The swivel design allows connected hoses to rotate freely, reducing kink and twist during operation. This fitting is installed by HVAC technicians, industrial mechanics, and pneumatic system technicians working with air tools, compressors, and distribution lines.

This fitting is suited for light-to-medium duty pneumatic applications in both residential and commercial settings. Typical installations include air compressor hose connections, air tool quick-connect setups, and pneumatic distribution manifolds where hose rotation or repositioning is required during regular use. The 1/4 inch NPT thread size is one of the most common thread standards in North American pneumatic plumbing, making this fitting broadly applicable across a wide range of service scenarios.

Key Features

• Swivel design allows 360-degree hose rotation to reduce kinking and line stress
• 1/4 inch NPT thread for compatibility with standard North American pneumatic fittings
• Aluminum and steel construction balances light weight with mechanical durability
• Compact form factor suitable for tight installation spaces
• Single-unit packaging for replacement and service use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for pneumatic hose systems using 1/4 inch NPT threaded connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with pneumatic systems. Depressurize and lock out the air supply before removing or installing any fittings. Apply thread sealant tape or compound rated for compressed air service to NPT threads before assembly. Overtightening NPT fittings can crack aluminum components — hand-tighten and apply only the additional turns needed to achieve a leak-free seal.
