1/4 RED Airline

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.

The 1/4 RED Airline is designed for use in air suspension systems, specifically for connecting air fittings and airlines to airbags and compressors. Its durable construction ensures reliable air delivery for optimal performance.

Yes, the 1/4 RED Airline is suitable for high-pressure applications typically found in air suspension systems. It is designed to withstand the pressures associated with airbag inflation and deflation.

When cutting the 1/4 RED Airline, ensure you make a square cut to avoid leaks. Use a sharp utility knife or tube cutter for a clean cut, and ensure the ends are free of burrs before connecting to fittings.

Yes, the 1/4 RED Airline is compatible with standard 1/4-inch air fittings from various brands. However, ensure that the fittings are designed for the same pressure ratings to maintain system integrity.

The 1/4 RED Airline can be used in lengths as required for your installation. However, keep in mind that longer lengths may lead to pressure drops; it’s best to keep runs as short as practical for optimal performance.

The 1/4 RED Airline is commonly used in air suspension setups for vehicles, trailers, and caravans. It is ideal for connecting air management systems, allowing for easy adjustment of airbag pressure for load assist and levelling.

While the 1/4 RED Airline is durable, it’s advisable to periodically check for any signs of wear or damage. Ensure connections are secure and free from leaks, and replace any damaged sections promptly to maintain system performance.
