🔌 Function

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Weeping at the connection rather than along the hose
• Threads corroded, stripped or picked up on removal
• Hex corners rounded off from repeated tightening
• Sealing face scored, dished or fretted
• Hose end split where it has been forced onto the nipple

🛠️ Service Notes

• Renew the sealing washer with the nipple rather than reusing the old one
• Check the threads in the component before fitting, since a damaged boss will leak past a new nipple
