Handy disconects for glycol coolers

[Dland]

I just got some of these for my glycol chiller. Really needed for my DIY hose rig, but also might be handy for chiller coils.

Suggest putting male end on one chiller hose, female on the other, so you can couple together for a closed system when not connected to fermentor

There are different styles, barbed vs NPT and bulkhead type, which I may also add to chiller tank sometime. Make sure you get the two ends that are compatible. Some look similar but do not mate. Also, they are available in "shut off" or "straight though" you want the shut off style. Half the point is not spilling coolant whenever you uncouple them.

I got some from supplier below, also got some from an ebay seller selling surplus new stock. Note the shut off valve that closes when uncoupled. Some so not have that.
