Value Collection BD2155 Gladhand Coupling 1/2-14 Nptf Aluminum

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD2155 is an aluminum gladhand pneumatic hose coupling designed for connecting and disconnecting air brake hose lines in trailer and fleet service applications. The coupling features a 1/2-14 NPTF thread for a pressure-sealing connection without the need for sealant tape when properly torqued. Aluminum construction keeps weight low while providing adequate corrosion resistance for typical service environments. This item ships in a package quantity of 4, making it suitable for stocking multiple service bays or completing multi-point repairs in a single order. HVAC and fleet maintenance technicians working on air brake systems are the primary installers of this type of fitting.

Gladhand couplings of this type are commonly found on semi-trailers, full trailers, and converter dollies where standardized air brake line connections are required. The 1/2-14 NPTF thread size is a standard fitment for gladhand bodies used on both service and emergency air lines. This coupling is appropriate for shops servicing Class 6, 7, and 8 commercial vehicles that require periodic replacement of worn or damaged gladhand bodies. The package quantity of 4 supports multi-unit repair jobs or parts inventory replenishment.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement gladhand coupling for pneumatic air brake hose assemblies using a 1/2-14 NPTF threaded gladhand body.

Installation Notes

Gladhand couplings are typically serviced by licensed heavy-vehicle technicians or qualified fleet maintenance personnel. Before replacing any coupling, depressurize the air brake system completely and verify system pressure has reached zero using an air gauge. NPTF threads are designed to seal on the thread form itself; inspect threads on both the coupling and mating fitting for damage before installation. Follow applicable DOT and FMCSA regulations governing air brake system repairs on commercial motor vehicles.
