Constructed from brass, this adapter features a 31\/32-20 thread form and is rated for operating pressures up to 125 psi. It measures approximately 2.55 inches in height, 1.1 inches in width, and 1 inch in length, and weighs 0.28 pounds. Licensed plumbers, fleet mechanics, and pneumatic system technicians install this fitting when transitioning from hose to threaded pipe connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis adapter is suited for air brake system plumbing on commercial vehicles and heavy equipment where a secure, leak-free hose-to-pipe transition is required. Its temperature rating of -400 to 1200 degrees F makes it appropriate for demanding environments with wide thermal variation. It falls within the MAF\/USA Brass Fittings line under the Air Brake hose end connector category, making it a recognized component in air brake service and repair work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction for corrosion resistance and durability in pneumatic systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 125 psi working pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWide temperature range: -400 to 1200 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e31\/32-20 thread specification for precise hose end engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact form factor: 2.55 inches tall, 1.1 inches wide, 1 inch in length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for air brake hose assemblies requiring a 3\/8-inch hose to 1\/2-inch MPT transition in brass construction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified mechanic or pneumatic systems technician.
