90 1/8NPTFEMALE -1/4LINE

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 90 1/8NPTFEMALE -1/4LINE fitting is designed to connect a 1/4" airline to a 1/4" NPT female thread. This elbow fitting allows for a change in direction of the airline, which can be useful in tight spaces or when routing air lines in your suspension system.

This fitting is typically made from durable materials such as brass or high-quality plastic, ensuring resistance to corrosion and wear. This durability is essential for maintaining a reliable air suspension system.

Yes, the 90 1/8NPTFEMALE -1/4LINE fitting is compatible with standard 1/4" airline systems. However, it is recommended to use it with Boss air lines for optimal performance and reliability.

This fitting is commonly used in air suspension systems, particularly for connecting air lines to valves or compressors. It is ideal for setups requiring a 90-degree angle to navigate around obstacles or to maintain a tidy installation.

While specific torque specifications may vary, it is generally recommended to hand-tighten the fitting and then use a wrench to secure it snugly without over-tightening. Over-tightening can damage the fitting or the threads of the connected components.

To ensure a leak-free connection, it is advisable to use a liquid thread sealant on the NPT threads rather than tape. This prevents fragments from breaking off and causing blockages in the air system. Additionally, ensure that the fitting is properly tightened and that the airline is fully inserted into the fitting.
