Description
Prevost Male Plug - High Flow Profile
Prevost ERP High Flow Male Plugs provide high-flow quick-connect compatibility for compressed-air systems using Prevost's High Flow profile. This listing combines the ERP 07 3/8" High Flow profile and ERP 11 1/2" High Flow profile with multiple male NPT connection sizes.
The High Flow profile determines compatibility with the mating quick coupler, while the male NPT connection determines how the plug attaches to female-threaded pneumatic tools, fittings, hose adaptors, manifolds, machinery, and other compressed-air equipment.

Choose the Correct High Flow Profile
ERP 07 - 3/8" High Flow Profile
The ERP 07 family uses Prevost's 7.4 mm High Flow plug profile, commonly identified as the nominal 3/8" High Flow profile.
- 7.4 mm passage/profile
- Nominal 3/8" High Flow profile
- 1/4" MNPT available
- 3/8" MNPT available
- Designed for compatible ESI 07 High Flow couplers
ERP 11 - 1/2" High Flow Profile
The ERP 11 family uses Prevost's larger 10.4 mm High Flow plug profile, commonly identified as the nominal 1/2" High Flow profile.

High Flow Profile vs. Male NPT Size
The High Flow profile size and male NPT connection size describe two different sides of the plug and should not be confused.
- The ERP profile determines which quick coupler accepts the plug.
- The MNPT size determines which female-threaded pneumatic component the plug attaches to.
- ERP 07 uses the 7.4 mm / nominal 3/8" High Flow profile.
- ERP 11 uses the 10.4 mm / nominal 1/2" High Flow profile.
- A 3/8" MNPT connection is available with both ERP 07 and ERP 11.
- Always verify both the quick-connect profile and male thread size before ordering.

|---|---|
| ERP 11 | 1/2" High Flow Profile - 3/8", 1/2", or 3/4" MNPT |
Why Correct Plug Selection Matters
Profile Compatibility
The ERP plug profile must match the High Flow quick coupler being used. Thread size alone does not determine quick-connect compatibility.
Thread Compatibility
The male NPT connection must match the female-threaded port on the pneumatic tool, fitting, hose adaptor, manifold, or equipment.
Airflow
The High Flow profile is designed for compressed-air applications where increased airflow through the quick-connect system is beneficial.
High Flow Compatibility
Prevost identifies two High Flow plug families in this listing:
- ERP 07: Compatible with the 7.4 mm / nominal 3/8" High Flow profile.
- ERP 11: Compatible with the 10.4 mm / nominal 1/2" High Flow profile.
- The mating quick coupler must use the corresponding High Flow profile.
- Male NPT size does not determine quick-connect compatibility.
- Do not force plugs into couplers using a different profile.
Common Applications
Pneumatic Tools & Equipment
- High-demand pneumatic tools
- Compressed-air equipment
- Air-powered machinery
- Tool inlet connections

How to Select the Correct ERP Male Plug
- Step 1: Confirm the mating coupler uses the Prevost High Flow profile.
- Step 2: Determine whether the application requires ERP 07 / 3/8" High Flow or ERP 11 / 1/2" High Flow.
- Step 3: Identify the female NPT port size on the pneumatic component.
- Step 4: Select the corresponding male NPT plug.
- Step 5: Verify pressure, temperature, and airflow requirements of the complete compressed-air system.

Installation & Safety Guidance
- Depressurize the compressed-air system before installing or removing threaded components.
- Confirm the High Flow profile before connecting the plug to a quick coupler.
- Verify that the male NPT connection matches the mating female thread.
- Use thread-sealing materials suitable for compressed-air NPT connections.
- Do not select the plug based only on thread size.
- Do not force incompatible quick-connect profiles together.
- Inspect plugs periodically for wear, corrosion, deformation, or damaged connection surfaces.
- Replace damaged or excessively worn plugs.
- Do not exceed the operating limits of the lowest-rated component in the compressed-air system.
