3/8" Asian Profile
The Prevost Sleeve Style Female Quick Coupler - 3/8" Asian Profile is designed for pneumatic systems using a compatible Asian-profile plug. The quick-connect profile and threaded equipment connection are separate specifications and should both be confirmed before ordering.

- Compact coupler configuration
- Suitable for frequently connected compressed-air components
Female NPT Connection
OSG 081201V has a 1/4" Female NPT connection for installation onto a compatible 1/4" male NPT fitting, hose adapter, manifold, pneumatic component, or other compressed-air equipment.
- 1/4" Female NPT connection
- Installs onto a compatible 1/4" Male NPT component
- NPT connection is separate from the quick-connect profile
- Verify equipment-side thread size before installation
Asian Profile vs. NPT Thread Size
The 3/8" Asian profile and the 1/4" Female NPT thread describe two different sides of the coupler.
- The Asian profile determines which quick-connect plug fits the coupler.
- The Female NPT thread determines which threaded component the coupler installs onto.
- A 1/4" Female NPT connection does not mean the coupler uses a 1/4" quick-connect profile.
- OSG 081201V uses a 3/8" Asian profile with a 1/4" Female NPT connection.
- Verify both specifications before ordering.
