Q/R #6 Male Socket Gold/Black

The JIFFY-TITE Q/R #6 Male Socket Gold/Black is a quick release adapter engineered for high-pressure hydraulic, pneumatic, and fluid transfer systems where speed and reliability are non-negotiable. Designed as part of the proven 3000 Series platform, this straight-body male socket connects to 6 AN male couplings and serves technicians, mechanics, and operators who need tool-free connection and disconnection without fluid loss or system bleed-down. Whether you're managing heavy equipment, automotive cooling systems, or industrial hydraulic rigs, this adapter eliminates downtime and simplifies maintenance workflows.

Built from aluminum and finished in black and gold anodize, the Q/R #6 Male Socket combines corrosion resistance with durability across harsh environments. The integral poppet valve design seals automatically during disconnect, preventing spillage and maintaining system integrity under full operating pressure. An FKM (Viton) seal ensures compatibility with a wide range of fluids—from coolant and hydraulic oil to air and inert gases—while maintaining reliable performance across temperature swings. The compact 3.6 x 1.65 x 4.85-inch footprint and lightweight 0.14-pound construction make it ideal for space-constrained installations without sacrificing pressure rating or flow capacity.

Fleet operators, heavy equipment technicians, and hydraulic system integrators benefit most from the JIFFY-TITE quick release design—particularly in applications requiring frequent connection cycles or emergency shutoff capability. Installation is straightforward: simply align and push the 6 AN male coupling into the socket until it seats; disconnection requires no tools and creates no mess. The anodized aluminum body resists oxidation in damp or outdoor conditions, while the FKM seal remains stable in both sub-freezing and elevated-temperature environments. This adapter is an industry standard for anyone prioritizing operational efficiency and system cleanliness in mobile or stationary fluid applications.
