Made from premium brass material, it offers excellent corrosion resistance and durability. The connector features a locknut design that ensures secure and reliable connections, suitable for connecting air hoses to threaded ports. Available in various specifications, the numbers in the model indicate the hose outer diameter (06, 08, 10) and thread size (01, 02, 03), meeting the connection needs of various pneumatic systems.

Installation Instructions
-
Preparation
- Ensure the working environment is clean, free of dust and impurities
- Check the connector for damage and ensure its specifications match the system requirements
- Prepare necessary tools such as wrenches, pipe cutters, etc.
-
Installation Steps
- Clean the connector surface and connection parts with a clean cloth
- Cut the air hose as needed, ensuring a flat cut
- Insert the air hose into one end of the connector until fully seated
- Tighten the locknut with a wrench to ensure a secure connection
- Screw the threaded end of the connector into the threaded port of the equipment, being careful not to overtighten
-
Installation Notes
- Ensure the air hose specifications match the connector, avoiding using hoses that are too large or too small
- Avoid excessive force during installation to prevent damage to threads or sealing surfaces
- Check if the seals are intact before installation
- Ensure the system pressure is within the rated working pressure range of the connector
