AirCraft Reducing Manifold Brass 1/8" x 1/2" F/F (SB1248)
At a Glance: 1/8" to 1/2" female-to-female brass reducing manifold for stepping between air-line sizes
Sometimes a compact air component needs to connect into a much larger airline—and you want it done neatly, not with a wobbling stack of adaptors. The AirCraft SB1248 brass reducing manifold provides a female-to-female (F/F) connection that steps from 1/8" to 1/2", making it ideal for adapting mismatched pneumatic components on compressors, regulators, filters, manifolds and general compressed-air plumbing. Made from durable, corrosion-resistant brass, it’s a workshop-ready connector that helps keep your setup tidy, serviceable and leak-conscious when installed correctly.
AirCraft brass fittings are designed for dependable compressed-air connections where sealing and longevity matter. This reducing manifold bridges two very different sizes in one compact, purpose-made connector.
Extra Information
- Confirm thread standard/type on your system components to ensure correct fitment before installation.
- Use PTFE thread seal tape or a suitable pneumatic thread sealant where applicable to help prevent leaks.
- Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading, then tighten using the spanner flats—avoid over-tightening.
- After installation, pressurise gradually and check for leaks using soapy water before full operation.
Pro Tip
- When stepping up to 1/2", support the larger hose/line so it doesn’t “hang” off the reducer—less leverage on the fitting means better sealing and longer thread life.
Features
- Brass construction Tough, corrosion-resistant body for long service life in workshop and industrial environments.
- 1/8" x 1/2" reducing manifold Steps between small-port components and larger air-line fittings.
- F/F (Female/Female) configuration Ideal for joining two male-thread components of different sizes.
- Compact connector Keeps your air-line layout tidy and easier to maintain.
Benefits
- Neat size conversion: Connect mismatched fittings quickly without changing your existing components.
- Fewer leak points: One correct reducer is often more reliable than stacking multiple adaptors.
- Stronger, more serviceable layout: Helps reduce strain and simplifies future maintenance.
Safety
- Wear eye, ear and dust protection when working around pressurised air systems and air tools.
- Depressurise the line fully before removing or installing any fittings.
- Do not exceed the pressure rating of your compressor, hose, tools or system components.
- Check for leaks after installation and correct immediately—never operate a leaking or unstable air line.
