A kinked nylon air line is where the next breakdown starts — the tube collapses at the bend, then chafes through against the steel it was wrapped around. 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\u003eRouting Without a Kink: The 45 Degree Bulkhead Union Advantage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA bulkhead union carries the tubing run through a panel or bracket and leaves a serviceable joint right at the wall, so the next technician can break the line at a known point instead of cutting into a harness bundle. This one is a \u003cstrong\u003ecomposite body\u003c\/strong\u003e fitting with \u003cstrong\u003epush-to-connect terminations on both ends\u003c\/strong\u003e, sized for \u003cstrong\u003e1\/2 in DOT nylon air-brake tubing\u003c\/strong\u003e. Cut the tube square, push it in, and the collet holds — no flare, no threading and no sealant on the tube side of the joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003e45 degree\u003c\/strong\u003e geometry is the part that saves the install. Where a straight union would force the line into a hard bend the moment it clears the panel, this fitting starts the turn inside the fitting body and lets the tubing leave on the angle it needs. At FleetPro Parts \u0026amp; Tires, this union is a direct replacement for the highly searched industry number \u003cstrong\u003eIHC 2029565C1\u003c\/strong\u003e, and it replaces the older Automann number \u003cstrong\u003e177.12C45BH88\u003c\/strong\u003e — order this one if that is the number on your parts list.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eVehicle Fitment \u0026amp; Compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis DOT push-to-connect bulkhead union uses a universal design 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 systems on Class 8 tractors and commercial trailers\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection:\u003c\/strong\u003e PLC 1\/2in DOT Nylon Tubing x PLC 1\/2in DOT Nylon Tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAngle:\u003c\/strong\u003e 45 Degree\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUse:\u003c\/strong\u003e Push-to-connect terminations on DOT nylon air-brake tubing runs\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 bulkhead union serves as a direct replacement for the following part numbers:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIHC Interchange:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2029565C1\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSupersedes:\u003c\/strong\u003e 177.12C45BH88\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAutomann Distributor #:\u003c\/strong\u003e 177.12C45BH8\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 Composite Bulkhead Union, 45 Degree\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection:\u003c\/strong\u003e PLC 1\/2in DOT Nylon Tubing x PLC 1\/2in DOT Nylon Tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/2 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAngle:\u003c\/strong\u003e 45 Degree\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReplaces:\u003c\/strong\u003e 177.12C45BH88\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 889626780042\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":43023802892359,"sku":"177.12C45BH8","price":18.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0587\/8035\/2583\/files\/image_1920_0dcf4778-7aea-4e16-be69-ee28473dba38.jpg?v=1785419227","url":"https:\/\/fleetpropt.com\/products\/composite-bulkhead-union-45-deg-dot-1-2-push-to-connect-air-brake-ihc-2029565c1-177-12c45bh8","provider":"FLEETPRO PARTS \u0026 TIRES ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
