Quick Exhaust Valve 3/8 NPT
The Legris 7982 18 18 is a brass quick exhaust valve with nickel-plated finish. It vents compressed air directly at the cylinder to increase cycle speed in pneumatic systems. The unit has female NPT threads on both inlet and outlet ports. It suits automation engineers and maintenance technicians specifying replacement components.
Verify pressure range and thread type
Confirm your circuit operates between 10 psi and 150 psi and between 0 °F and 160 °F. Ensure both connection points use 3/8 inch female NPT threads to match the valve ports. Check that the 3/8 inch overall length and 2 3/16 inch height fit the available mounting envelope. The product carries a California Proposition 65 warning for listed chemicals.
Brass body with nickel plating
The brass construction resists corrosion in standard shop air while the nickel plating adds surface durability. Female NPT threads on both ends allow direct connection to male pipe fittings without extra adapters. The compact body installs in-line or on a manifold using standard wrench flats. No electrical connections or pilot lines are required for operation.

Questions about this item
What comes in the box and do I need extra fittings?
The valve ships alone with 3/8 in NPT female threads on both ports; matching male connectors and thread sealant must be purchased separately.
Which version should I choose for 150 psi service?
Model 7982 18 18 is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 150 psi and a minimum of 10 psi, covering that requirement.
How does the 160 °F temperature limit affect installation?
The brass nickel-plated body handles up to 160 °F, so it can be mounted in compressed-air lines that stay within that range.
