1/2" Compression X 1/4" Female Stainless Connector
Maintain flawless chemical distribution and zero leak-induced pressure drops across your presoak arches with this premium, heavy-duty Hy-Lok stainless steel female connector.
SKU: P-INS-2047
This connector is used in the Double and Triple Presoak arches in the wash tunnel. The connector has a 1/2" tube compression connection on one end and a 1/4" Female npt connection on the other end. It is made of stainless steel material to withstand the harsh elements inside the wash tunnel. It has an ISO Tapered NPT pipe thread and is part of the Hy-Lok CFC series of connectors.
Key features and benefits include:
- Two-Ferrule Leak-Tight Design: Hy-Lok’s double-ferrule compression design provides a mechanical grip that handles structural vibrations from the tunnel blowers and pulse-cycles from high-pressure chemical pumps. It ensures a gas-tight, liquid-tight seal that won't back off.
- Aggressive Chemical Resistance: Specially treated to resist the highly corrosive surfactant packages, hydrofluoric acid alternatives, and heavy alkalines used in modern double and triple-foaming presoak packages.
- Pre-Swaged Consistency: Engineered for repeatable installations. It can be disconnected and remade easily during routine arch cleaning or nozzle replacement cycles without compromising seal integrity.
- Maintains Consistent Spray Patterns: By eliminating pressure bleeds at the tube connection point, this fitting ensures your presoak nozzles receive the exact pressure required for complete, wrap-around vehicle coverage.
