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 4MM 1/8 MALE PUSH FITTING? ⌄

The 4MM 1/8 MALE PUSH FITTING is designed to connect 4mm airline tubing to a 1/8" NPT male thread. This fitting is essential for creating a secure and leak-free connection in air suspension systems.

What materials are used in the construction of this fitting? ⌄

This fitting is typically made from high-quality brass or similar materials, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosion. This construction helps maintain a reliable connection under varying pressure conditions.

Can this fitting be used with other brands of air suspension systems? ⌄

Yes, the 4MM 1/8 MALE PUSH FITTING is compatible with various air suspension systems that utilise 4mm airline tubing and 1/8" NPT threads. However, always ensure compatibility with specific components before installation.

What are the typical applications for this fitting? ⌄

This fitting is commonly used in air suspension setups, including Load Assist kits, where it connects the air supply to the airbags. It is also suitable for use in pneumatic systems requiring a reliable air connection.

How do I ensure a leak-free connection when using this fitting? ⌄

To ensure a leak-free connection, apply a liquid thread sealant to the male threads before installation. Additionally, make sure the airline is cut squarely and fully inserted into the fitting to prevent leaks.

Is this fitting suitable for high-pressure applications? ⌄

Yes, the 4MM 1/8 MALE PUSH FITTING is designed to handle typical pressures found in air suspension systems. However, always check the specifications of your system to ensure it operates within safe limits.
