Metric-threaded air components are common on modern chassis, and the usual fix — an inch-to-metric adapter screwed into a second fitting — 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMetric Ports Solved: The 5\/8 in Brass Connector Advantage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eManufactured by Automann to \u003cstrong\u003eFleet Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e specifications, this \u003cstrong\u003emale to male connector\u003c\/strong\u003e combines a \u003cstrong\u003e5\/8 in tube end\u003c\/strong\u003e with an \u003cstrong\u003eM16x1.5 thread end\u003c\/strong\u003e and is intended for DOT air brake tubing.
