Standout feauture or series/quality/range AirCraft Metal Hosetail Workshop Essential
Built for everyday air-line work, this metal hosetail helps create a strong hose-to-thread transition that supports clean installations and helps reduce leaks when fitted correctly.
Extra Information
Inch sizing: The thread size is measured in inches (1/4"), not feet.
Thread type matters: This fitting is BSP—avoid mixing with NPT threads.
Best practice fitment: Push the hose fully over the tail and secure with a suitable clamp for a tighter seal.
Thread sealing: Use appropriate sealing (e.g., PTFE tape or thread sealant) on the male BSP thread that screws into this fitting.
Pro Tip
For a cleaner, longer-lasting connection, cut the hose end square, push it fully home, clamp it securely, then pressure-test with soapy water to confirm a leak-free seal.

Safety
