It features a 3\/8-inch body with a male automotive interchange profile on one end and a 1\/4-inch male NPT thread on the other, allowing direct connection between air lines and pneumatic tools or fittings. Rated to 300 psi maximum operating pressure, this plug is built for reliable service in shop air systems and mobile equipment pneumatic circuits. Licensed tradespeople and service technicians install this type of fitting when connecting air hoses to manifolds, valves, or tool inlets that require an NPT-threaded entry point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis plug is suited for use in residential, commercial, and industrial pneumatic systems where Parker or automotive interchange-style quick-connect couplers are in service. It fits into shop compressor setups, service truck air systems, and equipment requiring a standard automotive interchange interface. The 3\/8-inch body size is a common specification in light-duty and medium-duty air tool applications across automotive service, general manufacturing, and HVAC service environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMale automotive interchange profile mates with standard Parker and Tru-Flate compatible couplers\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-inch male NPT thread for direct installation into NPT-tapped ports or fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e300 psi maximum operating pressure rating\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch body size fits common automotive interchange quick-connect systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel construction for durability in shop and mobile service environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible with Tru-Flate connectors and Parker automotive interchange-style couplers.

Apply thread sealant tape to the male NPT threads per standard practice before threading into the receiving port. Hand-tighten first, then wrench-tighten to avoid cross-threading steel NPT connections. Installation should follow applicable OSHA and local compressed air safety guidelines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: Male Automotive Interchange Profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: Male NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Operating Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 300 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.075 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: MIDLAND INDUSTRIES\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 28512\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67949734363442,"sku":"28512","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/228a0f520ed15e629d4a3ed9416221ea_75ebb6b0-e72d-479c-b617-93616b11f11c.jpg?v=1791699590","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-28512-auto-interchange-male-plug-3-8-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
