Overview

Land a 5/8 in air line on a metric M16x1.5 port without an adapter stack, using this DOT brass male connector distributed by FleetPro Parts & Tires. Metric-threaded air components are common on modern chassis, and the usual fix โ€” an inch-to-metric adapter screwed into a second fitting โ€” buys you an extra sealing surface, extra length and one more thing to vibrate loose. This connector does the job in one brass body. 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.

Metric Ports Solved: The 5/8 in Brass Connector Advantage

Manufactured by Automann to Fleet Standard specifications, this male to male connector combines a 5/8 in tube end with an M16x1.5 thread end and is intended for DOT air brake tubing. It meets FMVSS 571.106 / DOT requirements for brake circuits, so it belongs on the brake side of the system rather than only on accessory plumbing.

Five-eighths is a large line, usually reserved for high-volume supply work, and getting it onto a metric port cleanly is exactly the kind of job that stalls a repair when the right fitting is not on the shelf. Brass construction stands up to the salt, moisture and vibration that live on an exposed chassis run, and it is a universal-application part โ€” one number for tractors, straight trucks and trailers.

At FleetPro Parts & Tires, we know a missing adapter can hold a truck hostage all afternoon. This Automann connector is a direct replacement for highly searched industry numbers including Parker 68PTC-10-MA16 and Parker 68PTC10MA16.
