Loc-line 41498 Coolant Hose Connector Socket 1/4 in

Product Description

The LOC-LINE 41498 is a coolant hose connector socket designed for use with modular coolant delivery systems in machine tool and CNC applications. This socket accepts 1/4-inch inside diameter Loc-Line hose segments and is rated for a maximum working pressure of 50 psi. The fitting is sold in a package of two sockets, making it suitable for simultaneous nozzle setups or replacement of worn connectors. Machinists, toolroom technicians, and machine maintenance personnel install these adapters to route and direct cutting fluid precisely at the cutting zone, keeping chips clear and tools cool during milling, turning, and drilling operations.

This connector socket is intended for use within modular 1/4-inch Loc-Line coolant hose assemblies commonly mounted on CNC machining centers, manual mills, lathes, and drill presses. The socket serves as the connection point where hose segments or nozzle tips attach to the hose line or a fixed mounting adapter. Each package includes two sockets, providing a spare or allowing a dual-outlet configuration at a single manifold port. Typical installation does not require special tools beyond the snap-fit assembly inherent to the modular system.

Key Features

• 1/4-inch inside diameter fits standard 1/4-inch Loc-Line modular hose segments
• Rated to 50 psi maximum working pressure
• Sold as a two-piece package for dual-outlet or replacement use
• Snap-fit modular design allows tool-free reconfiguration of coolant flow direction
• Compatible with typical cutting fluid and water-soluble coolant media used in machine tool applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or expansion component for 1/4-inch Loc-Line modular coolant hose systems. No additional specific model compatibility data was provided in the product record.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machine operators or maintenance technicians as part of a modular coolant hose assembly. Shut off the coolant pump and relieve any residual line pressure before disassembling or reconfiguring hose segments. Sockets snap together and apart by hand or with the manufacturer-supplied assembly tool; avoid using pliers or pipe wrenches, which can crack the fitting body. Verify all connections are fully seated before resuming coolant flow to prevent leaks at the joint.
