Review on πŸ’¦ Adjustable Magnetic Base Coolant Oil Water Hose Pipe with 1/4PT Thread Diameter by uxcell by Isaac Simpson

Revainrating 3 out of 5

It's not really 1/4PT

OUTPUT of this coupling goes to the ball valve and gooseneck Plastic, 1/4NPT, but has a different, smaller thread on the inlet that I haven't identified. I can't fit a 1/4 PT fitting into this entryway without drilling and tapping a larger hole. This is the hole that the hose connector is sticking out of in the picture. The hose fitting, on the other hand, is too big for a 1/4 nylon fitting. Air hose so it is not compatible with installed 1/4PT hoses you may have. just one, or do like the competition and turn on the second jet to switch. Eventually I can drill and cut it for 1/4PT, but that completely defeats the purpose of getting something finished. On the plus side, the ball valve is a reasonable brass ball valve (higher quality than the rest of the parts) and the magnet is strong enough to make it stick out sideways when attached to my spindle Z-axis, so that's good.

Pros
  • Thread Diameter: 12.5mm/0.5"/1/4PT; Connection Diameter: 8mm/0.31" (Approx.)
Cons
  • Operating Speed
