FAQ
What is the maximum pressure rating for this coupler?
This coupler is designed for low to medium pressure applications, typically up to 150 PSI, depending on the hose and system conditions. Always check compatibility with your specific setup.
Can it be used with fuel or oil-based fluids?
The plastic material is suitable for air, water, and many non-aggressive fluids, but may not be compatible with fuels or oils that could degrade it. Verify chemical resistance for your application.
Is the thread compatible with NPT fittings?
No, the 16mm thread is BSP (British Standard Pipe), which has a different pitch and profile than NPT. Use adapters if connecting to NPT systems.
How do I install the barbed end onto a hose?
Slide the barbed end into the hose inner diameter and secure with a hose clamp for a tight seal. Ensure the hose is clean and free of debris to prevent leaks.
What is the temperature range for this coupler?
It operates effectively in temperatures from -20°C to 80°C, making it suitable for most indoor and controlled environments without extreme heat or cold.
