Quick Coupler for HVAC Service
The JB Industries QC-S5S is a brass quick coupler designed for HVAC technicians who need a straight 180-degree connection during refrigerant handling. Its three-inch length provides reach in tight service ports while the 5/16-inch female SAE thread mates with standard charging hoses.
180 Degree Straight Reach Limit
The fixed 180-degree body cannot articulate around obstructions, so technicians working on angled or recessed ports may need an angled adapter instead. Brass construction resists corrosion from refrigerant oils but does not change the straight-line geometry of the fitting.
5/16 in Female SAE Thread Fit
The single specification that decides compatibility is the 5/16-inch female SAE thread, which must match the male flare on the charging hose or manifold gauge set being used. If the hose end uses a different thread size or pitch, this coupler will not seal.

Questions about this item
Which length and angle suit a tight engine bay — the 3 in straight or the 180 degree?
This coupler is 3 in long with a 180 degree bend, giving a single compact option for confined spaces.
What does the 5/16 in Female SAE thread mean when I connect it to my manifold?
It mates directly with a 5/16 in male SAE flare on hoses or manifold ports, no adapter required.
Does the brass body handle standard automotive refrigerant pressures?
Brass construction is standard for HVAC quick couplers and meets typical automotive refrigerant pressure ratings.
