Need to connect a 6mm hose onto a 1/4" threaded port without drama? The AirCraft SBF1257 brass hose tail connector is your clean, workshop-ready adaptor. It combines a 1/4" female thread on one side with a 6mm hose tail (barb) on the other, making it ideal for compressed-air hoses, pneumatic lines, air tools, regulators and general workshop plumbing.

- Confirm thread standard/type on the 1/4" port to ensure correct fitment before installation.
- Use PTFE thread seal tape or a suitable thread sealant where applicable on the mating male thread.
- After installation, pressurise gradually and check for leaks using soapy water before full operation.
