Product Description

This Dixon MC30 series hot-dipped galvanized steel quick connect Bauer-style (Type B) shank/water quick connect male coupler has a barbed hose ID end, valveless construction, and connects to a female Bauer style (Type B) coupler. The barbed hose ID connection fits inside the hose, has a greater hold than non-barbed connections. The coupler's hot-dipped galvanized steel body resists rust and corrosion. This coupler locks on the male side with a double pin locking lever and comes with a safety pin to prevent the fitting from being accidentally opened. It is used for irrigation and suction line applications, among others, but it is not recommended for use with media that would cause health or environmental concerns if the fitting leaked.SpecificationsFitting-end connectionMale couplerHose-end connectionID barbed hoseMaterialGalvanized steelHose fittings connect, control, change the direction of, and terminate the flow in piping and hose systems.
