Velvac 035070 Gladhand Grip

The Velvac 035070 is a gladhand grip constructed from polyurethane and steel with integrated hardware. It features blue and red colour coding for quick line identification. Female and male thread sizes are both 1/2 inch NPT with a 1/2 inch port. The component meets SAE J318 standards for air brake connections.

Installers needing SAE J318 compliant couplers

This grip suits technicians assembling or repairing heavy-duty air brake systems that require the specified thread and port dimensions. It is not intended for hydraulic fluid lines or pneumatic circuits using different thread standards. Buyers needing alternative port sizes or non-SAE configurations should look elsewhere.

1/2 inch NPT threads and SAE J318 rating

The defining specification is the 1/2 inch NPT female and male thread pairing combined with SAE J318 compliance. These dimensions and the standard determine whether the part matches the vehicle's gladhand ports. Verify the existing fitting threads and the required standard before purchase.

Questions about this item

Which thread size must the air line already have to accept the 1/2 in NPT female port on this gladhand grip?

The grip uses a 1/2 in NPT female thread, so the mating line must carry a matching 1/2 in NPT male fitting.

Will the SAE J318 standard on this grip match the older gladhands already on my trailer?

Yes, SAE J318 is the industry standard for gladhand connections, so it will couple with any existing J318-compliant units.

How can I confirm the polyurethane grip and steel body are seated correctly after installation?

Thread the grip fully onto the 1/2 in NPT port, tighten the included hardware, then verify a leak-free seal at operating pressure.
