FIT-PL-3/8-N4UT

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 FIT-PL-3/8-N4UT is a 90-degree push fit fitting designed to connect a 3/8" airline to a 1/2" NPT threaded port. It allows for efficient routing of air lines in tight spaces, making it ideal for custom installations.

The push fit mechanism allows for quick and easy installation. Simply push the 3/8" airline into the fitting until it is fully seated. The internal collet grips the airline securely, ensuring a leak-free connection.

The FIT-PL-3/8-N4UT is specifically designed for use with 3/8" diameter air lines. Ensure that your air line is compatible with push fit fittings to achieve optimal performance.

This fitting is commonly used in air suspension systems, pneumatic tools, and any application requiring a reliable air connection in confined spaces. Its 90-degree design helps to navigate tight corners effectively.

The FIT-PL-3/8-N4UT is designed to handle standard air pressures typically found in air suspension systems. However, always check the specific pressure ratings of your system to ensure compatibility.

The 90-degree design of the FIT-PL-3/8-N4UT allows for more flexible routing of air lines compared to straight fittings. This can be particularly beneficial in tight installation spaces where a straight fitting may not fit.

When installing the FIT-PL-3/8-N4UT, ensure that the airline is cut squarely and fully inserted into the fitting to prevent leaks. Additionally, use a suitable thread sealant on the NPT thread to ensure a secure connection.
