Title: Fittings for d2 air governor
Post by: T and M Long on November 29, 2022, 11:48:37 am
Was hoping that someone could tell me the description of these flare fittings.  I am ordering a new d2 and a spare was wanting to order the fittings. So that I could have the spare set up and ready to go, just in case.

Aeroquip brand air fittings,can find at Grainger,Napa,the new D2 should come with some plug fittings,use those to match threads.

Take one with you to Home Depot or the like and match it up

I appreciate the responses. Was hoping to order online but sometimes easier to go match them up.

It is flare x pipe thread. The pipe thread is 1/8th and I think the flare is 1/4

It is almost impossible to give you a part # for those fitting since we can't for sure tell you the size of the pipe thread or the flare fitting.

Need to take the part to a hydraulic hose place. I don't think Home Depot would have that. Show them the part and they will match up. 

My guess is part # 202113-4-4S

Home Depot does carry  those fittings; NPT( national pipe thread) X JIC fittings. Note, there are different degrees of angle for the JIC  fittings

Thanks for the great responses.  After my original post I actually left the house and went to my closest NAPA. They matched it up. This what they sold me which is what I needed for " my coach".

Not sure why you'd need new fittings.  I swapped my D2 out in less than 30 minutes...all compression hose adapter fittings removed from old D2 and replaced on new D2 with sealant...just make sure you get the proper fitting in the correct hole in the new D2...one at a time worked.  Woody.

It's a good idea to use the fittings in a spare D2 to make for a quick change out. That's what I carry. Because the plugs have to be matched up also

I explained why in original post. I feel like it would be more convenient. To have the spare already set up with the plugs and fittings. If I had a failure on the road. I guess it's just my preference. As always do what makes you happy😀.

Just for giggles, I put small colored zip ties on fitting and line where I removed it for easy replacement.  Not a bad idea to have a ready to go spare with fittings already on the D2.  Smart planning!
