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.

Is the 3/8 HEX NIPPLE compatible with all air fittings?

While the 3/8 HEX NIPPLE is designed to integrate seamlessly with Boss Air Suspension products, it may not be compatible with all brands or types of air fittings. Always check the specifications of your existing system before use.

What materials are used in the construction of the 3/8 HEX NIPPLE?

The 3/8 HEX NIPPLE is made from high-quality materials that ensure durability and resistance to wear. This construction helps maintain a reliable connection under varying pressure conditions typical in air suspension systems.

Can the 3/8 HEX NIPPLE be used in high-pressure applications?

Yes, the 3/8 HEX NIPPLE is designed to withstand the pressures typically found in air suspension systems. However, it is important to ensure that it is used within the recommended pressure limits to avoid any potential failures.

How do I install the 3/8 HEX NIPPLE?

To install the 3/8 HEX NIPPLE, ensure that all threaded fittings are clean and free from debris. Apply a suitable thread sealant, then screw the nipple into the appropriate fitting until secure. Avoid over-tightening to prevent damage.

What are the typical applications for the 3/8 HEX NIPPLE?

The 3/8 HEX NIPPLE is commonly used in various air suspension setups, particularly in Load Assist kits for vehicles and trailers. It is ideal for applications requiring reliable air connections and efficient pressure management.

How does the 3/8 HEX NIPPLE compare to other fittings?

The 3/8 HEX NIPPLE offers a robust design compared to standard fittings, providing enhanced durability and a secure connection. Its hex shape allows for easier installation and removal, making it a preferred choice for air suspension systems.
