Description

Brass Reducer Bushing, 3/8" GZ to 1/4" GW Thread

Brief Overview

This solid brass threaded reducer connects larger 3/8" male threads (GZ) to smaller 1/4" female ports (GW), making it an essential adapter for pneumatic line configurations and plumbing installations. The machined hexagonal body accepts standard wrenches for secure installation, while the precision-threaded bore ensures leak-free connections. Pair this with pneumatic quick connectors or step up to larger reductions like a 1/2" to 1/4" brass reducer to build complete system architectures for your customers.

Key Features

  • Solid Brass Construction: Corrosion-resistant material suitable for both pneumatic and fluid applications
  • Machined Hexagonal Body: Flat wrench faces allow controlled tightening without tool slippage
  • Precision Internal Threading: Clean bore with chamfered entry minimizes debris trapping and ensures smooth flow
  • 3/8" GZ to 1/4" GW Configuration: Direct male-to-female transition for standard industrial connection sizes
  • Smooth Reflective Finish: Indicates quality machining and allows visual inspection for wear or damage

Business Advantages for Resellers

  • High Margin Item: Compact brass fittings command strong wholesale-to-retail spreads due to material cost and precision machining
  • Essential in Every Toolkit: Pneumatic technicians stock these in volume for line reconfiguration and repair jobs
  • No Shelf-Life Concerns: Solid brass requires no expiration dating; inventory moves steadily over time
  • Bulk Order Potential: Customers frequently order assortments of reducer sizes—position this alongside 1/2" to 3/8" and 1/4" to 1/2" connector options to maximize transaction value
  • Compatible Ecosystem: Works seamlessly with standard quick-connect fittings and pneumatic hoses your customers already deploy

Why Resellers Choose This Fitting

Pneumatic technicians rely on quality brass reducers to avoid system leaks and maintain consistent pressure delivery. The 3/8" to 1/4" size ratio is a workhorse configuration—stepping down from primary supply lines to secondary branch circuits. Your customers will return repeatedly for these fittings because downtime costs far exceed the price of a reliable adapter.

Stock this reducer in volume. Build repeat business by bundling with complementary fittings and quick connectors. Strong margins, zero waste, predictable demand.
