D.O.T Fittings
DOT fittings are high-safety connectors for pneumatic brake systems and are certified to FMVSS 571.106 and SAE J2494. They are widely used in the brake lines of trucks, buses, and trailers, providing reliable sealing under high pressure, vibration, and harsh conditions.
In the U.S., all commercial-vehicle brake components must meet DOT standards. Globally, DOT-grade fittings are increasingly adopted for their higher safety, reliability, and lower maintenance risk.
All SHPI DOT fittings use a push-in quick-connect design for fast installation, easy replacement, and secure leak-free performance.
