Frequently Asked Questions
Will this fit a 10mm ID air hose?
Yes. 3/8" is the imperial equivalent used for 10mm Internal Diameter (ID) hoses. This barb is designed to be a snug fit for 10mm rubber or PVC air lines.
What is the benefit of the Hi-Flo design?
Standard plugs can restrict air volume. The Hi-Flo design of the Y-NL23PH allows for greater CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute), which is critical for tools that require high air volume to operate at their rated power.
