RS PRO Nickel Plated Brass Quick Air Coupling 1/2 in Female BSP 12mm, Maximum Operating Pressure 16 bar, 176-1938

RS PRO 176-1938 Nickel Plated Brass Quick Air Coupling is a high-quality pneumatic connector designed for versatility and reliability in demanding industrial applications. This quick connect coupling features a 1/2 inch BSP female thread and a 12mm hose barb, making it compatible with standard pneumatic hoses and fittings used across manufacturing, process engineering, and plant maintenance environments.

Constructed from nickel plated brass, the coupling delivers robust corrosion resistance and durability, ensuring long-lasting performance even in corrosive environments or frequent connection/disconnection cycles. The nickel plating not only enhances protection against rust but also makes the surface easier to clean and maintain.

Engineered for compressed air systems, the quick coupling supports a maximum operating pressure of 16 bar and an operating temperature range from -20°C to 80°C. This performance envelope allows safe use in both cold and hot environments, facilitating reliable operation in workshops, assembly lines, and pneumatic tool stations.

The design adheres to critical standards and approvals, including ISO 228 Class A, UNI ISO 6150 B-12, UNI ISO 6150 C-10, and PED Directive compliance, guaranteeing interchangeability and safety. It uses a MULTISOCKET profile compatible with many European, Swiss, Italian, and industrial standards, providing wide product compatibility and easy integration with existing pneumatic setups.

The 1/2 inch BSP female thread and 12mm hose barb connection enable secure, leak-free attachment to hoses and machinery, streamlining maintenance and minimizing downtime in high-throughput industrial environments. The coupling is suited for compressed air delivery, powering pneumatic tools, actuators, and automation systems in factories, automotive workshops, laboratory settings, and commercial plants.

For users requiring reliability, standard compliance, and easy interchangeability in pneumatic systems, RS PRO’s nickel plated brass quick air coupling offers an ideal solution. Its robust engineering and universal connection points make it a practical and durable component for fluid power operations.
