This Male Fitting, manufactured by Wabco under MPN 8930708344, is a crucial component within air brake systems. It's designed for secure connections in pneumatic lines, ensuring reliable operation of braking functions in commercial vehicles. Measuring 15 x 22 x 24 mm, this fitting meets OE specification, guaranteeing a precise fit and dependable performance within the air brake network. The fitting features a M18 x 1.5 thread and is compatible with 12 mm tube diameter. Its robust construction and adherence to original equipment standards contribute to the safety and longevity of the braking system. This fitting, simply put, connects air lines together. It’s the piece that actually goes into another fitting – that's where the "male" part comes from, like a plug. It creates an airtight seal so the compressed air that operates your brakes can travel where it needs to go. It typically uses an O – ring or a similar sealing component to make that connection secure. Think of your air brake system as the heart of stopping power for a lot of bigger vehicles – trucks, buses, trailers. This fitting is just one small, but critical, component within that whole system. It’s used throughout the air lines that run from the compressor, to the air tanks, and then to the brake chambers themselves. It’s a connection point, plain and simple. You'll find them at various places where air lines need to join – maybe where a supply line branches off to a different part of the system, or where a sensor connects in. Well, if this fitting fails, air leaks. Air leaks in an air brake system are a big deal. They reduce braking power, obviously, and can lead to brake failure. It acts like a shield preventing that loss of pressure. You’ll notice if you have a leak – either a hissing sound, or the air compressor will be running much more often trying to maintain the correct pressure. They're generally pretty robust, but vibration, corrosion, and just age can cause them to fail. We carry a good selection of these – you can find them on Fixparts Online if you’re looking, and it's always smart to replace these when you're doing other air brake work to avoid issues down the road. Wabco quality assured: Male Fitting (MPN 8930708344) includes a 12-month warranty!
