Description
Overview:
The PCL Double Union Male Thread R 1/2" Both Ends is a straight male-to-male pneumatic fitting used to join two female threaded components in compressed air systems. Made from solid brass for strength and corrosion resistance, it provides a dependable connection in site compressors, workshop airline installations, and machinery using pneumatic controls. Both ends are R 1/2" (BSPT taper) male threads, equivalent to 1/2 inch (12.7 mm), ensuring a tight, leak-resistant fit when used with PTFE tape or suitable thread sealant. Ideal for construction and garden equipment that relies on air-powered tools or actuators, it helps link regulators, filters, valves, manifolds, and hose ends with 1/2 BSP ports. PCL quality and OEM No. HC6898 support reliable fit and long service life.
Key Features:
- R 1/2" BSPT male thread both ends (1/2" = 12.7 mm) for standard airline interfaces
- Solid brass body for durability, impact resistance, and corrosion protection in harsh environments
- Secure taper thread form designed to achieve a tight seal with PTFE tape or approved sealant
- Straight-through union for joining two female 1/2 BSP ports without changing direction or adding length unnecessarily
- Easy to fit with common hand tools; suitable for quick maintenance and on-site repairs
- Compatible with typical airline components such as regulators, filters, valves, couplings, and manifolds
- Suitable for construction site compressors and workshop air systems in garages or sheds
- Supports reliable airflow and reduces the risk of leaks compared with worn or improvised connectors
- OEM reference HC6898 for assured match within the PCL pneumatic range
Typical Applications:
Linking two female R/Rp 1/2 BSP ports on pressure regulators, filters, valves, manifolds, hose tails, or machine inlets. Used when extending airline runs, repairing damaged unions, or adapting equipment on compressors, tool stations, and pneumatic circuits in construction, agriculture, and garden maintenance environments.
