Machined from steel with a zinc chromate finish, this nipple features a 1\/4-18 MNPT threaded connection and a 1\/4 inch body diameter. It carries a maximum working pressure of 300 psi and operates across a temperature range of -40 to 250 degrees F. The A2C belongs to Parker's Series 50 and is sized for common shop-air and pneumatic tool lines. Installation is handled by maintenance technicians, pipefitters, and industrial mechanics working on compressed air distribution systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe A2C fits into pneumatic quick-disconnect setups that follow the ARO interchange standard, making it compatible with ARO-pattern couplers widely used across industrial facilities, automotive shops, and construction sites. The 1\/4-18 NPT thread is the most common thread size found on air tools, compressors, and inline components, making this nipple a frequent service and replacement item. Its compact 1.62 inch overall length suits tight installations where clearance around the connection point is limited.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eARO interchange standard for broad coupler compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-18 MNPT threaded connection, NPT thread standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e300 psi maximum working pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOperating range of -40 to 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel construction with zinc chromate finish for corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSeries 50 design, 1.62 inch overall length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an ARO interchange replacement nipple for use with ARO-pattern pneumatic quick-disconnect couplers in compressed air and pneumatic tool applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDepressurize and lock out the compressed air system before removing or installing any pneumatic coupling component. Apply thread sealant appropriate for pneumatic service to the MNPT threads before installation. Use a wrench on the hex to tighten to a secure fit without over-driving the threads into the mating port. Verify system pressure does not exceed the 300 psi rated maximum after returning the line to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoupling Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Nipple\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInterchange Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: ARO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: MNPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-18\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.62 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHex Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.56 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 300 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: -40 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc Chromate\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 50\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.051 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40141734\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: PARKER\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: A2C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541362540850,"sku":"A2C","price":15.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d788b763bc9d9041c3dc5e3072859347.jpg?v=1785873557","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-a2c-pneumatic-hose-coupling-1-4-18-npt-aro","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
