Quick Release Sockets

A pneumatic quick release socket (female coupler) is an essential component for rapid, tool-free disconnection of pneumatic tools from an air compressor network, mating directly with a corresponding male plug (nipple).

Our quick release sockets are categorized by their end connections:

• Quick Release Sockets for Hoses & Tubing:
  • Socket with Hose Barb: Features a ribbed tail designed to securely hold flexible rubber or PVC hoses. Ideal for thick-walled air pipelines.
  • Socket with Compression Nut (or Anti-Kink Spring Guard): Equipped with a barb and outer clamping nut to securely fix flexible polyurethane (PU) or polyamide (PA) tubing. When selecting, match both the inner (ID) and outer (OD) tubing diameters. Models with integrated steel springs protect thin-walled tubes from bending and kinking during operation.
• Threaded Quick Release Sockets:
  • Features male (external) or female (internal) BSP/G threads for direct installation onto compressor ports, air blow guns, manifolds, and pneumatic machinery.

Specialist supplies industrial metal quick release sockets manufactured from durable nickel-plated brass with high-quality NBR seals, perfectly suited for heavy-duty compressed air systems. You can also purchase ready-to-use spiral air hose assemblies fitted with pre-installed quick disconnects.
