Applications
Used throughout Class 6–8 commercial truck and trailer pneumatic systems wherever DOT-rated air brake tubing connects to a threaded port:
- Air brake system plumbing — service, supply, and control lines on tractors, semi-trailers, and straight trucks
- Air tank, relay valve, quick-release, brake chamber, and dryer port connections
- Air suspension lines, height-control valves, and ride-height plumbing
- Air-operated accessories: seats, fifth wheels, air horns, door locks, mirrors, shift controls
- Freightliner, Kenworth, Peterbilt, International, Volvo, Mack, and Western Star tractors and trailers
Verify tube OD and port thread size before ordering. Tubing must be cut square, deburred, and fully seated to achieve a proper seal.
