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.

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.

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.

This fitting is specifically designed for use with Boss air suspension systems. It is important to ensure compatibility with your specific setup, particularly if integrating with other brands or systems.

The 1/4-1/4F- BULKHEAD fitting itself does not dictate lift range; however, it is designed to work seamlessly with Boss airbags that support standard height and up to approximately 2 inches of lift. For greater lift, consider using appropriate triple-bellow bags and taller brackets.

While the 1/4-1/4F- BULKHEAD fitting is optimally designed for air suspension systems, it may be used in other pneumatic applications where a secure bulkhead connection is required. Ensure that the specifications meet the demands of your specific application.

Installation of the 1/4-1/4F- BULKHEAD fitting involves securing it through a pre-drilled hole in your mounting surface. Ensure that you use a liquid thread sealant on threaded fittings to prevent leaks, and follow the manufacturer's guidelines for specific installation instructions.
