Its precise construction ensures a leak-proof connection, contributing to the overall safety and reliability of the braking system. This component measures 30 x 32 x 32 mm and is manufactured to OE specification. It features a tube diameter of 16mm and wrench size of 32mm.

Key Features & Benefits

This little piece basically connects two air brake lines that have different sized threads. One side is a larger M26 thread, and it shrinks down to a smaller M22 thread. It allows you to join those lines together securely. It’s a pretty simple part, but it has to do its job well. It seals up tight to prevent air leaks, which is absolutely crucial for your braking system. Think of it as a connector in your air brake lines. Air brake systems use compressed air to apply the brakes, and those lines have to be completely airtight. This adapter lets you bridge a gap where you have different sized fittings, often when replacing a component or making a repair. You’ll find these mainly on trucks, trailers, and other vehicles with air brakes.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Well, your brakes are obviously super important, right? A leak anywhere in the air brake system can seriously reduce your braking power. This adapter, when properly installed, acts like a shield against those leaks. If this is damaged or missing, you’ll notice if you have slow or ineffective brakes, or maybe even hear a hissing sound from the air lines. It’s one of those smaller parts that plays a big role in keeping everything safe. We carry a good selection of these at Fixparts Online, if you’re looking to replace one, and it’s always smart to replace it when you're working on air lines to ensure a solid connection.
