It features a swivel (orientable) design that allows technicians to position the air lines at the perfect angle without kinking or straining the tubing. The 6\/4 X 1\/8 specification indicates it is designed for precision 6mm metric tubing and features a 1\/8-inch threaded connection. Over time, plastic fittings can become brittle and crack, or the swivel mechanism can develop leaks under constant movement. Installing this high-quality union ensures an airtight connection and provides the flexibility needed for the moving parts inside a tire machine's base or tower.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct highlights\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e360-Degree Orientation:\u003c\/strong\u003e The swivel design allows for perfect tube alignment, reducing strain on air lines and preventing kinks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAirtight Seal:\u003c\/strong\u003e Engineered with precision threads and internal seals to maintain full system pressure without leaks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMetric Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Specifically designed for 6mm OD \/ 4mm ID metric pneumatic tubing commonly used in European-designed shop equipment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompact Profile:\u003c\/strong\u003e The \"short\" design allows for installation in tight spaces where standard fittings might not fit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM Reference:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1486071\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6\/4 X 1\/8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1486071\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Manufacture:\u003c\/strong\u003e USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDirect replacement models\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSnap-On:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1486071\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSnap-On Equipment:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1486071\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFits Models:\u003c\/strong\u003e Snap-On, John Bean, and Hofmann tire changers requiring metric swivel pneumatic fittings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eYou will receive the same product or an OEM-Equivalent that meets the highest standard of the OEM with warranty that will be a direct-fit.
