AirCraft Reducer Brass 1/8x1/4 Male/Female (SB1218)
At a Glance: Brass reducer adaptor with 1/8 x 1/4 male/female threads for compact pneumatic connections.
The AirCraft SB1218 brass reducer is a compact adaptor designed to connect pneumatic components while stepping between 1/8 and 1/4 thread sizes, using a male/female configuration. It’s ideal for compressed-air assemblies such as gauges, regulators, valves, manifolds and air tool accessories where you need to adapt sizes cleanly without stacking multiple fittings. Brass construction adds durability and corrosion resistance, helping keep your pneumatic system reliable, leak-resistant and easy to service in everyday workshop use.
Pneumatic plumbing is easiest when you use the right adaptor, not a tower of “almost fits” fittings. The SB1218 helps you adapt neatly between common small thread sizes while keeping your layout clean and service-friendly.
Features
- Male/female adaptor Connects one female-threaded component to another fitting in a compact format.
- 1/8 x 1/4 thread sizes Useful for adapting between common small pneumatic components and fittings.
- Brass construction Durable and corrosion resistant for workshop environments.
- Compact design Ideal where space is limited and neat routing matters.
Benefits
- Cleaner assemblies: Steps between sizes with fewer joints and fewer potential leak points.
- More dependable sealing: Correct fitment helps reduce leaks in pneumatic circuits.
- Workshop tough: Brass construction supports long service life and easy maintenance.
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 to a firm, secure fit.
Pro Tip
- When fitting gauges or small regulators, align the component first, then tighten—this helps you avoid over-tightening just to “aim it straight”.
