Overview

A stripped or cross-threaded metric air port turns a ten-minute line repair into a valve replacement. This Brass Push-Lock Connect (PLC) Male Connector from Automann is the correct M12 x 1.5 thread for Volvo-style air ports, with a deep hex that gives a wrench real purchase in a recessed or crowded location instead of rounding off. The push-lock end takes 1/4 in DOT nylon air brake tubing by hand. We stock these heavily right here in our Hanover Park, Illinois warehouse to ensure lightning-fast shipping for fleets, diesel repair shops, and owner-operators nationwide.

Deep Hex, Metric Thread: The M12 x 1.5 PLC Connector Advantage

The deep hex body is the detail that matters on this fitting. Metric air ports are often sunk into a valve boss or tucked behind a bracket, and a shallow hex is exactly where a wrench slips and a brass corner disappears. The deeper flats let you seat a wrench squarely and torque the fitting home. Behind that hex, the brass body and collet resists the corrosion that swells a steel fitting into an aluminum housing, so the joint is still serviceable the next time this circuit is opened.

On the tube side, the push-to-connect collet accepts 1/4 in nylon air brake tubing: cut it square, push it home and pull to verify. The fitting is a DOT-approved brass fitting for air brake tubing and meets FMVSS 571.106 requirements for brake circuits. It weighs 0.08 lbs, ships in a 1.25 x 1 x 1 in package, is built to Fleet Standard specifications, and carries a 1-Year FleetPro Warranty.

This connector replaces Automann 177.V20510630 and is a direct replacement for highly searched industry numbers including Volvo 20510630, Parker 68PTC-4-MA12 and Parker 68PTC4MA12. Verify the port thread before ordering - metric air ports come in more than one size and only an M12 x 1.5 fitting will seal here.
