Key Features & Benefits

This little part basically connects your air brake lines – the hoses that carry compressed air to your brakes. It's a fitting, and it creates a secure, leak – proof connection. It’s just a straight connector, meaning it doesn't bend or change direction, it simply extends the line. It uses o – rings to seal everything up tight. Think of it as a link in a chain. Your air compressor builds up pressure, that pressure travels through the hoses and fittings – like this nozzle – to the brake chambers at each wheel. It’s part of the system that ultimately applies the brakes, so it’s a critical component, even though it's small. It’s usually found anywhere you have straight sections of air line, connecting longer runs together.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Air brakes need to hold pressure. If this nozzle cracks, gets damaged, or an o – ring fails, you'll start to lose air pressure. You’ll notice if you start seeing brake drag or if your air compressor is running more frequently trying to keep up. A leak here can seriously compromise your stopping power, and that’s obviously a big safety concern. It acts like a shield against air loss in your brake system. You can find these pretty readily, and places like Fixparts Online usually have a good selection. It’s a relatively inexpensive part to replace, and doing it proactively is a lot better than dealing with a brake failure on the road.
