Why this plug

  • Straight-thru, no valve — which means unrestricted full flow with minimal pressure drop, ideal for air, fluid transfer, and vacuum.
  • Same ID as nominal pipe — which means the coupling does not choke your line, maximizing flow and efficiency.
  • Standard industrial interchange — which means it couples with the most widely used industrial coupler design.
  • Steel construction — which means strength and durability for demanding use.

Frequently asked questions

What does straight-thru mean?
There is no shut-off valve in either the socket or the plug, so the coupling flows as freely as the pipe — maximum flow, minimal pressure drop. Note: lines do not self-seal on disconnect.

What does this connect to?
Standard industrial interchange — only same-size FST sockets and plugs couple together.

What pressure is it rated for?
Rated to 2700 PSI (steel, 1/2"), per ANSI/B93.2, 4:1 safety factor.

Ideal for high-flow air, fluid transfer, and vacuum lines where shut-off is not needed. Pair this plug with a matching 1/2" FST socket.
