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 Straight 1/8 M/F Fitting is designed to create a secure connection between air lines in your air suspension system. It ensures reliable airflow and is essential for the proper functioning of Load Assist kits.

This fitting is specifically designed for Boss Air Suspension systems. While it may work with other systems that use 1/8" fittings, we recommend using Boss components for optimal performance and reliability.

The Straight 1/8 M/F Fitting is made from high-quality materials to ensure durability and resistance to wear. This construction helps maintain a secure seal and prevents leaks in your air suspension system.

Yes, the Straight 1/8 M/F Fitting is designed to handle the pressures typically found in air suspension systems. However, always ensure that the entire system is rated for the pressures you intend to use.

To achieve a leak-free connection, it is recommended to use a liquid thread sealant on the threaded fittings rather than thread tape. Ensure that the fitting is tightened properly and that the air line is cut square and fully inserted.

This fitting is commonly used in Load Assist kits to connect air lines to airbags and compressors. It is ideal for custom installations or upgrades where a reliable air connection is required.

The Straight 1/8 M/F Fitting features a male to female straight design, which is distinct from other fittings that may have different configurations, such as elbow or T fittings. This design is optimal for applications requiring a direct connection without directional changes.
