This Dixon EA4F4 steel hydraulic water-blast quick connect 1/2" plug has a 1/2" female NPTF threaded end, valveless construction, and connects to a hydraulic water-blast quick connect coupler. The female National Pipe Thread Taper Fine (NPTF) threaded end connects with male NPT-threads. Steel provides better weldability and greater rust resistance than wrought iron. The steel body components resist brinelling and internal corrosion, and the smooth bore provides maximum flow with minimum pressure drop. A sleeve guard protects against accidental disconnection. This fitting's maximum working pressure (MWP) is 10,000 pounds per square inch (psi) (689.47 bar) at 70 degrees F, and s. It is used for general purpose hydraulic applications.

Hose fittings connect, control, change the direction of, and terminate the flow in piping and hose systems. They are made of brass, stainless steel, galvanized steel, and other materials that resist corrosion, pressure, and wear. Hose fittings have various types of connections, including threaded, barbed, push-to-connect, dry disconnect, and others including those based on internationally-accepted specifications. Hose fittings are used in systems such as air compressors, automatic manufacturing operations, aircraft controls, and tire installation in industries including agriculture, mining, road construction, firefighting, and aviation.
