Male Thread X Anti-Drip Push-Lock Coupling

Push-Lock Couplings and Adapters can make water changes and other maintenance chores a breeze. By having them hooked up to reactors, pumps, and water change hoses you can easily use the same pump that runs your reactor to drain your sump for a water change. The interchangeable sizes make them...

It seems to me this would make plumbing reactors and UV's much easier if using silicone tubing. thoughts?

I use those for reactors off of my manifold. They do cut flow upon disconnection. I like them, even though they are pricey.

We have them at work. We primarily use them for air lines.

I used them to upgrade the flush ports on my boat, they work great. They’re made by Colder Products. I ordered them from freshwatersystems.com which saved me some money compared to the boat upgrade sites that offered them in a kit.
