BULKHEAD FITTING 3/8-3/8

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 BULKHEAD FITTING 3/8-3/8 is designed to provide a secure connection between push-fit airline and NPT female thread fittings. It allows for a clean and efficient way to pass air lines through walls or panels while maintaining a leak-free seal.

The BULKHEAD FITTING 3/8-3/8 is rated for a maximum working pressure of approximately 150 PSI. Ensure that your system operates within this limit to prevent leaks or failures.

Installation involves drilling a hole in the panel or wall where you want to pass the airline through. Insert the fitting through the hole and secure it with a nut on the inside. Ensure that the airline is pushed fully into the fitting to create a proper seal.

Yes, the BULKHEAD FITTING 3/8-3/8 is compatible with other brands that use standard 3/8" NPT female threads and 3/8" push-fit airlines. Always ensure that the specifications match to maintain system integrity.

This fitting is commonly used in air suspension systems, pneumatic tools, and other air delivery systems where a secure and leak-free connection is required. It's ideal for installations where airlines need to pass through barriers.
