Parker 23KATF06MPN Pneumatic Hose Coupling 1/4 in Brass

Product Description

The PARKER 23KATF06MPN is a brass pneumatic hose coupling designed for use in industrial compressed air and pneumatic fluid systems. Part of the Parker 23 Series, this coupler features an Industrial Interchange configuration with a hose barb connection type and a 1/4 inch body diameter. It is rated for a maximum working pressure of 300 psi and handles temperatures from -4 degrees F to 212 degrees F, making it suitable for a wide range of shop and field pneumatic applications. Weighing 0.26 pounds, it is a compact, direct-fit replacement component installed by HVAC technicians, pipefitters, and maintenance mechanics.

This coupler is intended for use in pneumatic systems requiring Industrial Interchange compatibility, one of the most common coupling standards found in manufacturing facilities, service shops, and mechanical rooms. The hose barb connection accepts a 1/4 inch inside diameter hose, and the 0.81 inch hex size allows for standard wrench installation. It is appropriate for both new installations and replacement service on existing pneumatic lines where an Industrial Interchange coupler is specified.

Key Features

• Industrial Interchange coupling type for broad cross-compatibility with standard pneumatic fittings
• Brass construction for corrosion resistance in compressed air and fluid service
• 300 psi maximum working pressure rating
• Operating temperature range of -4 degrees F to 212 degrees F
• Hose barb connection for 1/4 inch inside diameter hose
• Compact 2.81 inch overall length with 0.81 inch hex for wrench access

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style Industrial Interchange replacement coupler for pneumatic hose systems requiring a 1/4 inch body diameter hose barb fitting. Compatible with 1/4 inch inside diameter pneumatic hose in systems conforming to Industrial Interchange standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic or technician after fully depressurizing and locking out the pneumatic system. Use a properly sized wrench on the 0.81 inch hex to secure the fitting without over-tightening the hose barb connection. Verify hose inside diameter matches the 1/4 inch barb before assembly. Inspect the hose end for cracks or wear before attaching to avoid pressure loss or failure under service conditions.
