🔌 Function

Joins two parts of a fluid circuit together, carrying the flow across the joint and sealing it against the pressure in the system.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Weeping, a wet film or drips at the joint
• Dried residue and staining built up around the fitting where a slow leak has evaporated
• A joint that will not seal however carefully it is tightened
• Damaged threads, or a sealing seat that has been distorted or scored

🛠️ Service Notes

• Check the thread form, seat and size against the fitting you are replacing before you start; a fitting that screws in is not necessarily the right one
• Renew the sealing washers or O-rings that go with it rather than reusing the old ones, and make sure the seats and threads are clean
• Tighten to the figure in the workshop manual for your engine — overtightening distorts the seat and starts the leak you were trying to cure
• Support the pipe or hose either side so the fitting is not carrying the run
