A gladhand connector or gladhand coupler is an interlocking hose coupling fitted to hoses supplying pressurized air from a tractor unit to air brakes on a semi-trailer, [1] or from a locomotive to railway air brakes on railroad cars. [2] Gladhand connectors resemble a pair of "hands shaking" when interlocked, hence the name. [1]
One side is connected to a flexible supply hose; the other may be attached to a manifold, valve, tool, or another hose. A female coupler is used on the supply side, and a male nipple is used on the receiving side. Fitting profiles have identifiable geometry on the male end, but care must be taken to use a compatible coupler.
The 1933 report of the National Screw Thread Commission mentions 3 ⁄ 4-inch hose and 1-inch hose on the same line, labeling them "Chemical engine and booster hose", with the other sizes labeled "Fire-protection hose". 1-inch hose with 1-11.5NPSH ASME threads; 1 + 1 ⁄ 4-inch hose with 1 + 1 ⁄ 4-11.5NPSH ASME threads

During that decade, Alaska Freight Lines won the contract to transport construction material to build the Distant Early Warning Line (DEW) in far northern Alaska and Canada .
All new narrow gauge rolling stock acquired for that line from that year were equipped with Willison couplers. Older rolling stock were not converted and an adapter was used to enable coupling between the two types. The drawhook on the bell-and-hook coupler would be replaced with the adapter, which was attached using the same drawhook pin. [7]
The pressurized air comes from an air compressor in the locomotive and is sent from car to car by a train line made up of pipes beneath each car and hoses between cars. The principal problem with the straight air braking system is that any separation between hoses and pipes causes loss of air pressure and hence the loss of the force applying ...
