Western Enterprises Brass Female Socket Quick Connect - Fuel Gas

Western Enterprises brass female socket delivers reliable fuel gas connections for professional welding and cutting operations. Engineered with non-interchangeable design to prevent dangerous gas mixing, this component features instant closure reverse flow check valves that provide total shutoff at just 10 oz of back pressure. Constructed from durable brass for extended service life in demanding shop environments. Cycle testing demonstrates over 100,000 operations, indicating 10 to 12 years of comparable service life under normal welding conditions. Connection Type: Female Socket Gas Type: Fuel Gas Material: Brass construction Cycle Life: Over 100,000 operations tested Back Pressure Shutoff: 10 oz total closure Safety Feature: Non-interchangeable design prevents gas mixing Compatible With: QBD11 and QBD21 components The reverse flow check valve system provides an additional safety layer by automatically stopping gas flow when back pressure occurs, protecting both equipment and operators. Brass construction resists corrosion and maintains consistent performance across temperature variations common in fabrication environments. This female socket integrates with QBD11 and QBD21 quick disconnect systems, enabling rapid torch changes and efficient workflow management in multi-station welding operations.
