AirCraft Reducer Brass 1/2x1/2 Male/Female (SB1226)
At a Glance: Brass reducer adaptor with 1/2 x 1/2 male/female threads for larger compressed-air connections.
The AirCraft SB1226 brass reducer is a sturdy adaptor designed to connect pneumatic components using 1/2 x 1/2 threads, with a male/female configuration. It’s ideal for workshop air distribution, compressor plumbing, manifolds, filters and other higher-flow air system hardware where a reliable threaded connection matters and you want a tidy, service-friendly setup. Brass construction offers durability and corrosion resistance, helping keep larger air line connections dependable, leak-resistant and easier to maintain over time.
Bigger fittings usually sit in the main air line area, where any leak wastes a lot of air. The SB1226 helps keep 1/2 connections clean and compact, reducing unnecessary joints and helping improve long-term reliability.
Features
- Male/female adaptor Compact reducer format for joining pneumatic components.
- 1/2 x 1/2 thread size Common for main-line and higher-flow compressed-air hardware.
- Brass construction Durable and corrosion resistant for workshop environments.
- Direct connection format Helps create a solid join without bulky adaptor stacks.
Benefits
- Cleaner assemblies: Creates a tidy connection with fewer extra adaptors and fewer leak points.
- Dependable sealing: Correct fitment supports better sealing and improved reliability.
- Long service life: Brass construction stands up well in workshop and light industrial use.
Extra Information
- Confirm the thread type and sealing method used in your system before installation.
- Use suitable thread sealant (PTFE tape or pneumatic thread sealant) where required by your application.
- Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading, then tighten evenly with the correct spanners.
Pro Tip
- On 1/2 fittings, support the connected pipework while tightening—side-load on threads is a common cause of slow leaks over time.
