Overview

The coned tailpiece is the foundation of a secure hose assembly. Where inferior fittings rely on compression alone, this precision-machined brass component uses a tapered cone profile to create a mechanically positive seal — eliminating micro-leaks that rob your system of pressure and efficiency. Machined from high-grade brass and finished with a nickel-plated coating, it is built to withstand the demands of continuous workshop use, fleet maintenance bays, and industrial production lines.

Technical Specifications

Key Features
