Copeland 510-0370-00 Schrader Fitting
The Copeland 510-0370-00 Discharge 1/4" Schrader Fitting is an OEM Schrader access fitting for the discharge side of a Copeland compressor. It is a solid brass fitting with a hex body, male pipe threads, a 1/4" Schrader valve, and a knurled brass cap, made in the USA. It gives you a permanent discharge pressure test port that seals every time you take a gauge hose off.
A discharge Schrader port is where you hook up gauges to read head pressure, discharge pressure for superheat and compression ratio checks, and to catch a pump-down or high pressure cutout problem in the act. Over the years, caps go missing, cores start to weep, and threads get cross-loaded, and a leaking discharge port is a slow refrigerant leak at the hottest, highest pressure point on the compressor. Replace the whole 510-0370-00 fitting when the body or threads are damaged, wrap the new threads with refrigeration-rated thread sealant, and leak check with the system pressurized before you close up.
Key Benefits
- Discharge Pressure Access: A permanent Schrader port for gauges on the discharge side of the compressor.
- Self-Sealing Core: The Schrader valve core closes when the hose is removed, so gauge checks do not lose refrigerant.
- Brass Body with Cap: A brass hex body and knurled cap for a second seal against leaks and dirt.
- OEM Copeland Part: 510-0370-00 is the factory discharge Schrader fitting, made in the USA.

- Where does it install? On the discharge side of the compressor, in a tapped port that matches the fitting you are replacing.
- Do I need thread sealant? Yes, use a refrigeration-rated thread sealant on the pipe threads and leak check the fitting once the system is under pressure.
