Description
Overview:
The PCL Hose Tail 6.35 mm (1/4 in) I/D Hose to Male Thread R 3/8 in - HC6904 is a solid brass pneumatic fitting for making reliable hose-to-thread connections in air systems. The barbed tail suits hoses with a 6.35 mm (1/4 in) internal diameter, while the tapered R 3/8 in BSPT male thread (3/8 in nominal pipe size; thread OD approx. 16.66 mm; 19 TPI) connects to regulators, valves, manifolds, and tools. Brass construction offers good resistance to corrosion and wear in workshop and site conditions. Designed for compressed air use, it provides a tight, durable joint when used with a suitable hose clamp. Ideal for air compressors, blow guns, tyre inflators, spray equipment and general pneumatic tools in garages, workshops and on-site maintenance.
Key Features:
- Solid brass body for durability and corrosion resistance in workshop and site environments
- Barbed tail for 6.35 mm (1/4 in) I/D hose to help prevent slippage and leaks when clamped
- R 3/8 in BSPT male tapered thread (approx. 16.66 mm OD, 19 TPI) for airtight connections to BSP air outlets and fittings
- Clean machining for consistent airflow and dependable sealing surfaces
- Compact hex for easy tightening with a suitable spanner
- Quick to install; no special tools required beyond standard hose clamp and spanner
- Compatible with common UK pneumatic equipment using BSP threads
- Suited to standard workshop compressed air systems (use within the pressure ratings of your hose and associated fittings)
- PCL part number: HC6904 for easy identification and reordering
- Helps reduce downtime by providing a robust, serviceable connection point
Typical Applications:
Connecting 6.35 mm (1/4 in) I/D air hoses to R 3/8 in BSPT threaded ports on compressors, regulators, filter-regulator-lubricators (FRLs), manifolds and tools. Common in garages, vehicle workshops, body shops, construction sites, plant maintenance, and DIY setups for running blow guns, tyre inflators, nailers, staplers, and other light pneumatic tools.
