The Hose Collar (Brass) is a small, precision-machined fitting used to create a secure, leak-proof connection between a flexible hose (such as a steam or water hose) and a threaded port on laundry machinery. This 1/4" x 6mm brass collar is an essential component for ensuring reliable fluid connections in professional steam iron boxes and other pressurized systems.
• Secure Hose Attachment: Designed to clamp a 6mm diameter hose securely onto a 1/4" male threaded fitting (like a nipple or adapter), preventing leaks and hose blow-offs under pressure.
• Durable Brass Construction: Made from brass for excellent corrosion resistance, strength, and durability in steam and hot water environments.
• Reliable Seal: When tightened correctly, it compresses the hose against the fitting, creating a robust seal capable of handling the pressures found in laundry steam systems.
• Standard Sizing: The 1/4" x 6mm size is a common standard for connecting smaller diameter hoses to equipment threads.
• Reusable Fitting: Can typically be reused if care is taken during disassembly and reassembly.
• Connecting steam hoses to solenoid valves, iron boxes, or boiler outlets in Star Fish SCSP 017 and SSP 018 series equipment.
• Specifically used to connect the steam hose to the outlet of the solenoid valve, which controls steam flow from the boiler to the iron.
• General hose-to-thread connections in various laundry machine fluid lines (water inlet, steam, drain).
