This \u003cstrong\u003eBrass Push-Lock Connect (PLC) Male Connector\u003c\/strong\u003e from Automann is cut for the M16 x 1.5 metric thread found on Volvo air brake plumbing and takes \u003cstrong\u003e1\/4 in DOT nylon tubing\u003c\/strong\u003e on the push-lock end. It replaces Automann 177.V20566175. 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBig Port, Small Line: The M16 x 1.5 PLC Connector Advantage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis connector solves a specific problem: a \u003cstrong\u003elarge M16 x 1.5 metric port\u003c\/strong\u003e that has to feed a \u003cstrong\u003e1\/4 in air line\u003c\/strong\u003e. Rather than stacking a reducer bushing on an adapter - two more joints, two more places to leak - it does the whole step-down in one brass body. Fewer joints in a brake circuit is always the better repair, and it keeps the assembly short enough to clear the brackets and harnesses that crowd these ports.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003epush-to-connect\u003c\/strong\u003e end takes square-cut nylon tubing by hand and locks it in the collet, so the line can be built at the roadside with a tubing cutter alone. Brass construction resists the salt spray, condensate and heat cycling that corrode plated-steel fittings, and it is a DOT-approved brass fitting for air brake tubing that meets \u003cstrong\u003eFMVSS 571.106\u003c\/strong\u003e requirements for brake circuits. Automann builds it to Fleet Standard specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is a direct replacement for highly searched industry numbers including \u003cstrong\u003eVolvo 20566175\u003c\/strong\u003e, Volvo 20448956, Parker 68PTC-4-MA16 and Parker 68PTC4MA16, and it supersedes Automann 177.V20566175. Check the port thread before ordering - a metric port that looks close is not close enough, and only an M16 x 1.5 fitting will seal here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eVehicle Fitment \u0026amp; Compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis DOT brass air fitting is intended for the following commercial applications:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMake\/Model:\u003c\/strong\u003e Universal - air brake plumbing on Volvo applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem:\u003c\/strong\u003e Air brake plumbing on tractors and trailers\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/4 in DOT nylon tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePort Thread:\u003c\/strong\u003e M16 x 1.5 metric\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompliance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Meets FMVSS 571.106 \/ DOT requirements for brake circuits\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComponent Group:\u003c\/strong\u003e Air Brake \u0026amp; Wheel \/ Air System Manifolds \u0026amp; Valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDirect Replacement \u0026amp; Cross-Reference Numbers:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis Automann brass fitting serves as a direct replacement for the following part numbers:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVolvo Interchange:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20448956, 20566175\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eParker Interchange:\u003c\/strong\u003e 68PTC-4-MA16, 68PTC4MA16\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAutomann Supersession:\u003c\/strong\u003e 177.V20566175\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAutomann Distributor #:\u003c\/strong\u003e 177.13B684M16\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComponent Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Push-Lock Connect (PLC) Male Connector, DOT air brake\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube End:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/4 in DOT nylon tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread:\u003c\/strong\u003e M16 x 1.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReplaces:\u003c\/strong\u003e 177.V20566175\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication:\u003c\/strong\u003e Universal, Volvo\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompliance:\u003c\/strong\u003e DOT approved, FMVSS 571.106\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fleet Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 889626743559\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fleet Standard Aftermarket\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Automann (Distributed by FleetPro Parts \u0026amp; Tires)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Automann","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43023816917063,"sku":"177.13B684M16","price":11.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0587\/8035\/2583\/files\/image_1920_efc62b88-0484-43db-b76e-2c657cfd447e.jpg?v=1785419682","url":"https:\/\/fleetpropt.com\/products\/brass-push-lock-male-connector-1-4-tube-x-m16-x-1-5-air-brake-fitting-volvo-20566175-20448956-parker-68ptc-4-ma16-177-13b684m16","provider":"FLEETPRO PARTS \u0026 TIRES ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
