Frequently asked questions

Should I use thread tape or thread sealant on air fittings?

Boss recommends using a liquid thread sealant rather than thread tape. Small fragments of thread tape can break off, travel through the airlines and lodge in valves or valve blocks, causing them to stick open or closed. A quality thread sealant seals the threads without shedding debris.

How do I avoid leaks with push-to-connect fittings?

Always cut the airline square with a sharp tube cutter, not side cutters. Push the tube firmly into the fitting until it bottoms out, then pull back gently to seat the collet. Most leaks are caused by angled cuts, scratched tube, or the line not being fully inserted.

Can I reuse push-to-connect fittings and airlines?

You can often reuse fittings and lines if they are in good condition, but if the tube end is scratched, oval or has been repeatedly removed, it is safer to cut back to a fresh section or replace it. Damaged tube ends are a common source of slow leaks.

What is the purpose of the 1/2 X 3/8 Reducing Bush?

The 1/2 X 3/8 Reducing Bush is designed to connect different sizes of air lines within your air suspension system. It allows for a secure and efficient transition between 1/2 inch and 3/8 inch fittings, making it essential for custom setups and maintenance.

Is the 1/2 X 3/8 Reducing Bush compatible with all Boss air suspension systems?

Yes, the 1/2 X 3/8 Reducing Bush is compatible with all Boss air suspension systems that require a transition between these two fitting sizes. It is particularly useful in load assist kits where different line sizes may be used.

What material is the 1/2 X 3/8 Reducing Bush made from?

This reducing bush is made from high-quality brass, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosion. This material choice helps maintain the integrity of your air suspension system over time.

Can I use the 1/2 X 3/8 Reducing Bush for high-pressure applications?

Yes, the 1/2 X 3/8 Reducing Bush is designed to handle the pressures typically found in air suspension systems. However, always ensure that your overall system is rated for the pressures you intend to use.

How should I install the 1/2 X 3/8 Reducing Bush?

To install the 1/2 X 3/8 Reducing Bush, ensure that the threads are clean and apply a suitable liquid thread sealant to prevent leaks. Tighten securely but avoid over-tightening to prevent damage to the fittings.
