Overview
The 5/8 Tube Brass PLC Connector from Automann is a professional-grade fitting engineered for high-capacity air systems in heavy-duty commercial vehicles. Designed for 5/8" DOT nylon tubing, this connector utilizes a Push-to-Connect (PLC) mechanism to provide a secure, airtight bond without the need for specialized tools or compression nuts. It is the ideal solution for primary air brake lines, suspension systems, and auxiliary air components where maximum flow and reliability are non-negotiable.
Heavy-Duty Brass Durability: The 5/8 Tube Brass PLC Connector Advantage
Constructed from high-strength industrial brass, the 5/8 Tube Brass PLC Connector (Automann Part # 177.13B6810D) is built to thrive in the harsh environments found beneath the chassis. The brass body provides natural resistance to corrosion from road salt and moisture, ensuring that the internal locking teeth maintain their "bite" for the life of the connection. Note: This fitting is specifically designed for high-pressure applications, offering a robust interface between 5/8" OD tubing and a standard 1/2" NPT threaded port.
As we continue to build the largest inventory of commercial truck parts in Illinois, we prioritize air system components that meet or exceed DOT standards. Installation is as simple as pushing the tubing into the fitting until it seats; the internal stainless steel teeth securely grab the nylon line, creating a leak-proof seal that holds even under high vibration. Whether you are repairing an air tank manifold or a primary distribution block, this 5/8 Tube Brass PLC Connector delivers the factory-standard performance required to keep your truck safe and operational.
