Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install these connectors, ensure your air line is depressurized before beginning. Apply a small amount of PTFE thread tape to the male BSP thread to guarantee an airtight seal against your hose or tool inlet. Tighten using an appropriate spanner until firm, being careful not to overtighten and strip the threads.
Compatibility check: Ensure your current compressor hose or air tool uses the PCL Vertex system. These fittings will not lock into industrial-style or Euro-style couplings.
Maintenance: Periodically inspect the rubber seals inside the coupling for signs of cracking or debris. If the connection begins to leak air, clean the face of the connector and replace the internal seal if necessary. Keep the bayonet lugs free of grit to maintain smooth rotation.
