DC2042SE Dixon Parker EZ-Mate Steel Industrial Interchange Coupler - Standard Hose Barb - 1/4" Body Size x 1/4" Hose ID

Parker Ez-Mate Industrial Interchange Couplers Ez-Mate couplings combine push-to-connect, exhaust-style action with a self-locking valve sleeve to guard against accidental disconnection. Simply follow the direction of the on-off arrow stamped on the yellow chromate valve sleeve. Valve sleeve acts as an integral shut-off valve that allows connection and disconnection at zero pressure. When the sleeve is moved to shut off air flow, it automatically vents downstream allowing for disconnection at zero pressure and eliminating the risk of hose whip. On hose assemblies, pressure rating is the lower of either the rating of the coupling or the hose at 70 Deg. F
