Value Collection 578787 Pneumatic Swivel Fitting 3/8 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 578787 is a pneumatic swivel fitting designed for use with 3/8 inch pipe thread connections. It uses the Railroad Interchange standard, making it compatible with railroad-grade pneumatic systems and associated tooling. This fitting allows rotational movement at the connection point, reducing hose twist and wear in active pneumatic lines. It is typically installed by industrial mechanics, fleet maintenance technicians, and rail service professionals working on compressed air systems that require flexible, rotating connections.

This swivel fitting is suited for railroad interchange pneumatic applications where standardized thread engagement and reliable rotation are required. It is commonly used in maintenance facilities, rail yards, and industrial environments that operate compressed air systems built to railroad interchange specifications. The 3/8 inch pipe thread size fits standard pneumatic hose assemblies and components within that thread class.

Key Features

• Swivel design allows rotation at the connection point to reduce hose strain and kinking
• 3/8 inch pipe thread size for compatibility with standard pneumatic fittings in that thread class
• Railroad Interchange specification for use in rail and heavy industrial pneumatic systems
• Compact form factor suitable for space-limited installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement fitting for pneumatic systems using 3/8 inch pipe thread connections built to Railroad Interchange standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified industrial or mechanical technician. Depressurize the pneumatic system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Apply appropriate thread sealant to pipe threads per shop standards and local codes. Do not overtighten, as this can damage the swivel mechanism or thread engagement.
