AirCraft Nipple Brass 1/8x1/4 Male/male (SB1209)
At a Glance: Brass male-to-male nipple adaptor with 1/8 x 1/4 thread sizes for pneumatic connections.
The AirCraft SB1209 brass nipple is a handy male-to-male adaptor designed to connect two female-threaded pneumatic components where you need to step between 1/8 and 1/4 thread sizes. It’s ideal for tidy compressed-air plumbing on regulators, gauges, valves, manifolds, couplers and air tool connections—especially when you want a clean, direct join without stacking multiple adaptors. Brass construction makes it a solid workshop choice thanks to its durability and corrosion resistance, helping you keep your air system reliable and service-friendly.
Pneumatic systems are basically a LEGO set for adults—except air leaks are the pieces that mysteriously vanish. The SB1209 helps you adapt between common fitting sizes properly, keeping your layout neat and your connections more dependable.
Features
- Male-to-male nipple adaptor Connects two female-threaded pneumatic components.
- 1/8 x 1/4 thread sizes Useful for adapting between common small and mid-size air system fittings.
- Brass construction Durable and corrosion resistant for workshop environments.
- Compact design Ideal for tight installs on regulators, manifolds and air tool connections.
Benefits
- Cleaner pneumatic builds: Helps you adapt between sizes without messy adaptor “stacks”.
- More reliable connections: Correct sizing helps support better sealing and fewer leaks.
- 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.
- Avoid over-tightening—use the correct spanners and tighten to a firm, secure fit.
Pro Tip
- After fitting, pressurise the line and do a quick soapy-water test on the joint—tiny bubbles mean a tiny leak (and tiny leaks waste a lot of compressor time).
