AirCraft Brass Conical Straight 1/2" Tube x 3/8" M (SB6808C)
At a Glance: Conical tube-to-thread straight fitting: 1/2" tube to 3/8" male connection
When you’re running 1/2" pneumatic tubing and need a clean connection into a 3/8" threaded port, this is the neat, no-nonsense solution. The AirCraft SB6808C brass conical straight fitting adapts 1/2" tubing to a 3/8" male thread in a straight-through layout—ideal for workshop air circuits, manifolds, machinery pneumatics and general compressed-air plumbing where you want a compact, serviceable join. Brass construction brings durability and corrosion resistance, while the conical connection style is designed to seat securely for reliable sealing when installed correctly.
AirCraft tube fittings are built for practical pneumatic layouts where sealing and serviceability matter. This straight connector gives you a tidy transition from 1/2" tubing to a 3/8" male-thread port without bulky adaptor stacks.
Extra Information
- Use with compatible 1/2" pneumatic tubing; cut the tube squarely for best sealing.
- Use PTFE thread seal tape or a suitable pneumatic thread sealant on the 3/8" male thread where applicable.
- Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading, then tighten using the flats—avoid over-tightening.
- Support the tube run near the fitting to reduce vibration and side-load, especially with larger 1/2" tubing.
Pro Tip
- Big tube loves to pull and twist. Add a tube clip or bracket close to the fitting so the connection isn’t carrying the weight—better alignment means fewer leaks and longer seal life.
Features
- Brass construction Durable, corrosion-resistant body suited to workshop and industrial environments.
- Tube-to-thread adaptor Connects 1/2" tubing to a 3/8" male-thread port in one compact fitting.
- Straight conical design Straight-through layout designed for a secure, leak-conscious connection when fitted correctly.
- Space-saving solution Keeps installations neat and simplifies maintenance.
Benefits
- Cleaner installations: Fewer parts means less clutter and fewer potential leak points.
- Reliable sealing: Correct fitment helps reduce air loss from leaks and supports consistent system performance.
- Stronger tube control: A proper connector helps manage heavier 1/2" tube runs more securely than improvised solutions.
Safety
- Wear eye protection when working with pressurised air lines.
- Depressurise the system fully before cutting, removing or installing tubing and fittings.
- Do not exceed the pressure rating of your tubing, fittings or system components.
- Check for leaks after installation and correct immediately to prevent hose whip or unexpected tool actuation.
