Featuring a dryseal construction, this fitting includes a male NPTF thread size of 1/4"-18 and a push-on hose barb designed for 1/2" ID Lok-On style hoses.

Installation is straightforward: trim the hose end squarely, lubricate the fitting or hose, and push the fitting into the hose until the first barb is fully inserted and the hose end is covered by the yellow cap. Disassembly involves making a 1-inch cut along the barb end and pulling the fitting out carefully to avoid damage. Dixon push-on fittings are intended exclusively for Lok-On push-on style hoses, ensuring optimal performance and safety.
