OUR VERDICT
A standard 1/2" industrial interchange plug. This is the plug most US air couplers accept. Check your coupler style before ordering; if it is an ARO or Tru-Flate coupler, it needs a matching plug or a universal coupler.
WHAT WE LIKE
- Made in the USA by Foster, heavy-duty industrial grade
- Industrial interchange, fits the most common air coupler profile in US shops
- One-piece plated steel or brass body
- Available in NPT, hose barb and push-on ends
WORTH NOTING
- Industrial-style only; it will not fit ARO, Lincoln or Tru-Flate couplers
- Steel plugs will show surface rust outdoors; use brass there
