FIT-PL-1/4-N1UT

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.

Yes, the FIT-PL-1/4-N1UT fitting is compatible with most airbag systems that utilise 1/4" airline and require a 1/8" NPT male thread connection. Ensure that the specifications match your system for optimal performance.

The swivel design of the FIT-PL-1/4-N1UT allows for easier installation and adjustment of air lines without the need for additional fittings. This flexibility helps reduce stress on the airline and prevents potential leaks.

While the FIT-PL-1/4-N1UT fitting is designed for standard air suspension pressures, it is essential to verify that it meets the pressure requirements of your specific application. Always consult the manufacturer's specifications for safe operating pressures.

Compared to standard non-swivel fittings, the FIT-PL-1/4-N1UT offers enhanced flexibility and ease of installation in tight spaces. Its 90-degree elbow design helps maintain a clean and efficient air line routing, reducing the risk of kinks or bends.

The FIT-PL-1/4-N1UT fitting is constructed from high-quality materials designed for durability and resistance to corrosion. This ensures a long service life and reliable performance in various air suspension applications.
