Description
Overview:
The PCL Safeflow Coupling Male Thread R 3/8" - SC21EM is a safety quick-release pneumatic coupling for connecting air lines to tools and machines in workshops, garages, construction sites, and plant rooms. Built with a robust metal body and a corrosion‐resistant finish, it is designed for frequent use and long service life. The male thread is R 3/8" (approx. 9.5 mm nominal), which is the UK BSPT (taper) standard for reliable sealing in compressed air systems. The Safeflow mechanism helps vent downstream air before full disconnection to reduce hose whip and noise, adding a layer of safety during use. It suits common pneumatic equipment such as impact wrenches, ratchets, nailers, spray guns, blow guns, inflators, and fixed manifold or regulator outlets. Model: SC21EM from PCL.
Key Features:
- Safety venting action helps release downstream pressure before full disconnect to reduce hose whip and noise
- Quick connect/disconnect for faster tool changes and reduced downtime
- Male thread R 3/8" (approx. 9.5 mm nominal) BSPT for secure, tapered thread sealing in UK systems
- Durable metal construction with a corrosion‐resistant finish for long service life
- Positive locking sleeve for a secure connection and reduced risk of accidental release
- Smooth internal flow path designed for efficient air delivery and minimal pressure drop
- Compatible with typical workshop compressors, hose reels, regulator outlets, and air distribution blocks
- Simple to fit to tools or fixed outlets using standard sealing methods (e.g. PTFE tape on BSPT threads)
Typical Applications:
General compressed air line connections on tools and equipment, including assembly benches, vehicle workshops, construction sites, and maintenance bays. Common on hose reels, manifolds, filter‐regulator‐lubricator (FRL) sets, portable compressors, and fixed airline drops where safe, quick tool changes and reliable sealing are required.
Also known as:
Safety air coupling, venting quick‐release coupling, pneumatic hose coupler, airline quick connector, male BSPT quick coupler, 3/8" BSPT male airline fitting (approx. 9.5 mm), air line coupling, safety disconnect coupling, compressed air connector.
