Stainless-steel fittings offer anti-corrosive properties and reliable performance. They are commonly found at all joints where high pressure fluid may need to be disconnected after use. Other areas such as lances, tips, and foam cannons are convenient places to install these QC's. As a rule of thumb, Veloci’s 3/8" fittings are normally found between the pump and the spray gun where 3/8" hose is commonly used. When purchasing plugs and couplers the male fitting has exposed threads while the female fitting has threads on the interior of the fitting. See image for reference.

All Veloci fittings are National Pipe Thread (NPT) which means they have a tapered male or female thread (depending upon the model). NPT is mainly used in North America and was developed on the concept of interference by the third thread. When installing NPT fittings to another NPT thread we recommend that you use 4-5 wraps of Teflon tape wound clockwise, or 2-3 drops of Loctite thread sealant.

British Standard Pipe Thread (BSP) is found in the European market and has a different thread pitch than NPT. BSP is also considered a 'straight thread' which means it has no taper at the end. When installing NPT on BSP or vice versa, use 6-7 wraps of Teflon or 2-3 drops of Loctite and tighten accordingly. When tightening opposing thread styles (BSP and NPT) you will experience more interference sooner and you will not be able to tighten the fitting as far as like-threads, but will still have a tight seal, just make sure to use the recommended amount of Teflon tape or Loctite.

Warranty Information and Technical Support Contact:

It is important you understand before purchasing an MTM Hydro brand product, the warranty is facilitated by Veloci Performance Products (the supplier/manufacturer of MTM Hydro brand products), which is the case with almost all tool and equipment purchases. Veloci warrants to the original purchaser of their pressure washing accessories that such products will be free of material and workmanship defects under normal use for the period of 90 days from purchase. The entire warranty policy can be view at the link below. In the very rare case of a warranty defect or failure with a high pressure part it will typically present itself with the first use. After the 90 day period any failure of a high pressure part is considered regular wear and tear.

Any technical issues, warranty returns or exchanges will be facilitated directly with the supplier/manufacturer, Veloci Performance Products.
