Frequently asked questions

Should I use thread tape or thread sealant on air fittings?

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.

How do I avoid leaks with push-to-connect fittings?

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.

Can I reuse push-to-connect fittings and airlines?

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.

What is the purpose of the PY1/4-1/8NPT Y Female Thread fitting?

The PY1/4-1/8NPT Y Female Thread fitting is designed to connect two 1/4" push-fit lines to a single 1/8" NPT female thread. This allows for efficient air distribution in your air suspension system.

What are the typical applications for this fitting?

This fitting is commonly used in air suspension setups where multiple air lines need to be connected to a single air source, such as a compressor or tank. It is ideal for applications requiring precise air management in load assist systems.

Is this fitting compatible with other brands of air fittings?

The PY1/4-1/8NPT Y Female Thread fitting is specifically designed for Boss Air Suspension systems. While it may fit other brands that use similar dimensions, it is recommended to use Boss fittings for optimal performance and compatibility.

What is the maximum working pressure for this fitting?

This fitting is designed to handle the same pressure ratings as Boss air fittings, typically up to 150 PSI. Always ensure that your system does not exceed this pressure to maintain safety and reliability.

How do I install the PY1/4-1/8NPT Y Female Thread fitting?

To install this fitting, first ensure that all air lines are cut squarely and free of debris. Insert the 1/4" push-fit lines fully into the fitting until they click into place. Then, thread the 1/8" NPT side into your desired component, using a liquid thread sealant for a secure connection.

Can I use thread tape with this fitting?

It is not recommended to use thread tape with the PY1/4-1/8NPT Y Female Thread fitting. Instead, use a liquid thread sealant to prevent fragments from breaking off and causing blockages in your air system.
