Air Compressor Inline Filter Aerotec Palmair with 3/8" Steel Male Thread (MPN 7981000)

The Aerotec Palmair inline air filter with 3/8" steel male thread is designed for integration into compressed air lines where a compact, threaded filtration element is required. This inline filter removes particulates and protects downstream pneumatic tools and equipment by improving the quality of supply air. Its steel male thread allows direct connection to standard 3/8" fittings, making it suitable for workshops, garages and production environments that use compressed air for hand tools and pneumatic systems.

Advantages

The Palmair inline filter provides mechanical removal of solid particles from compressed air, reducing wear on valves, cylinders and air-operated tools. Its compact steel-threaded housing enables secure, leak-resistant installation in tight spaces. The filter is designed for low pressure drop to maintain system efficiency while offering reliable protection for downstream components. Simple inline placement and durable construction support frequent use in workshop and industrial applications.

Suitable for

• Protecting pneumatic tools such as impact wrenches, air ratchets and spray guns
• Inline filtration in workshop and garage compressor lines
• Pre-filtration before pressure regulators and lubricators
• Compressed air supply to small pneumatic systems and production machines

Key specifications

• Connection type: external steel 3/8" male thread
• Mounting style: inline installation within compressed air lines
• Primary function: removal of solid particulates from compressed air
• Construction: metal housing suitable for workshop and industrial use
• Flow consideration: designed for minimal pressure drop under normal operating flow

How to use

Install the inline filter directly into the compressed air line using a matching 3/8" female fitting or adapter. Ensure the flow direction marked on the filter matches the airflow direction in the line. Tighten the steel male thread to achieve a secure, leak-free connection, and mount the filter so it is accessible for inspection and maintenance. Periodically check the filter element for accumulated particles and replace or clean according to the operating conditions and contamination level.

Usage recommendations

For best results, place the Palmair inline filter upstream of sensitive equipment and downstream of the main compressor outlet or tank. Where moisture is present, use in combination with a water separator or dryer and schedule regular checks to avoid element clogging and maintain consistent airflow and tool performance.
