Universal quick coupler for compressed air

Connect and disconnect tools and hoses instantly, and stop losing air through old couplers. The quick coupler is the female coupling that tools and hoses plug into: it connects and disconnects without tools and shuts off the air when released. A leaking coupler means air, energy and money escaping every time the compressor starts.

Universal profile, with a hose tail for 6, 8 or 10 mm hose or with a 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" male or female thread to fit on the compressor, regulator or air network. According to the manufacturer, it is made of stainless steel, resistant to corrosion from the moisture in compressed air.

Advantages

  • Universal profile: the most widespread on workshop compressors and tools.
  • Automatic shut-off: cuts off the air when the tool is disconnected.
  • Nine versions: 6, 8 or 10 mm hose tail and 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" male or female threads.
  • Stainless steel: corrosion-resistant, according to the manufacturer.

What it is for

  • Replacing the outlet coupler on the compressor or regulator.
  • Installing air outlets on the workshop network.
  • Fitting the end of a hose for connecting tools.

Technical specifications

  • Profile: universal
  • Hose tail: 6, 8 or 10 mm hose
  • Female thread: 1/4" · 3/8" · 1/2"

Vetonek tip

Check the internal seal from time to time and put a drop of oil on the mechanism: a leaking coupler is air (and money) you are losing. If you use long hoses or heavy tools, consider the anti-disconnect safety version.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference from the quick connector?

The coupler is the female part (on the compressor or hose) and the quick connector is the male part fitted to the tool.

Do I need to use PTFE tape?

Yes, apply PTFE tape or thread sealant to tapered male threads to prevent leaks.

Which version should I choose?

Hose tail for the end of a 6, 8 or 10 mm hose; male or female thread for the compressor, regulator or air network.

Is it compatible with my tools?

Yes, if they have a universal-profile male quick connector, the most common in workshops.

Why is my coupler leaking?

Usually because the internal seal is worn or dirty, or a thread has been poorly sealed. If the body is damaged, it is best to replace it.
