FLARE FITTING-1/4NPT

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 FLARE FITTING-1/4NPT is designed to provide a reliable connection in air suspension systems. It ensures a secure and leak-free interface between air lines and components, which is crucial for maintaining optimal air pressure in your suspension setup.

The FLARE FITTING-1/4NPT is constructed from high-quality materials to ensure durability and resistance to corrosion. This enhances its longevity and performance in various environmental conditions.

To install the FLARE FITTING-1/4NPT, ensure that the threads are clean and free of debris. Apply a suitable liquid thread sealant to the threads, then screw the fitting into the corresponding 1/4 NPT port, tightening securely without over-torquing.

Yes, the FLARE FITTING-1/4NPT is designed to withstand high pressures commonly found in air suspension systems. However, always ensure that it is used within the specified pressure limits of your overall system to prevent failures.

The FLARE FITTING-1/4NPT features a flare design that provides a more secure connection compared to standard fittings. This design helps to prevent leaks and ensures a stable connection under varying pressure conditions, making it ideal for air suspension applications.
