Abstract
A fluid line connection for a pneumatic distribution system for an agricultural air seeder includes a female connector having an inside diameter with a groove and a male connector configured for internal assembly with the female connector. The male connector has an external tab that engages the groove to retain the male connector to the female connector when the female connector is rotatingly assembled with the male connector. The female connector is removed by rotating and disassembling from the male connector to access a conveyance tube or manifold for servicing these parts. A sealing member is assembled between the male and female connectors to form a fluid seal. A primary tube can be assembled between two fluid line connections to form a quick connect assembly. A fitting connector and a locking ring are assembled with a fluid line connection to retain a primary tube thereon for an air drill.
