Its robust construction and precise design contribute to the overall efficiency and safety of the braking system, providing a secure housing for sensitive diagnostic equipment.

Key Features & Benefits

This isn't the whole airbag itself, but a fitting within the airbag system. Think of the whole airbag system as a network of parts that rapidly inflate a cushion during a collision. This fitting is a connection point – it's how lines and components attach to each other, ensuring the high – pressure gas can get where it needs to go quickly. It maintains a secure seal so nothing leaks out before it’s needed. It’s a relatively small piece, but absolutely critical to everything working as it should. This fitting is part of the air brake system, even though we usually think of those on big rigs. Some vehicles use this type of system to assist with airbag inflation, providing a secondary, very powerful source of compressed gas. It’s integrated into the overall safety system – it doesn’t work on its own, but it’s a vital link in the chain. It ensures that if the main system fails, there’s backup to inflate the bag.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

It's important because, quite simply, it’s a safety component. If this fitting fails, or leaks, it could mean the airbag doesn’t deploy properly in an accident. Or it might deploy at the wrong time, which is obviously dangerous. It acts like a shield, helping to protect you and your passengers. You’ll notice if one of these fittings is damaged – usually a visible leak or corrosion. We carry a good selection of these at Fixparts Online, and it’s best to replace these as soon as you spot a problem. It’s a small investment for a big safety payoff.
