Brass Male Threaded Connector Tvardy GW 1/4" (male) – thread type GW 1/4"

Brass male threaded connector Tvardy GW 1/4" (male) is a precisely machined metal fitting that provides a durable external GW 1/4" threaded interface. Manufactured from brass for corrosion resistance and stable mechanical performance, this male connector is intended for creating reliable threaded joints in systems that use the GW 1/4" standard. The compact design and solid construction make it suitable where a metal-to-metal connection is preferred over plastic fittings.

Advantages

The brass construction offers good resistance to corrosion and wear, ensuring long service life in many environments. Machined threads deliver consistent fit and sealing performance when paired with compatible female GW 1/4" components. Its metal body withstands higher mechanical stresses and temperature ranges than typical plastic alternatives, while the simple external-thread design enables straightforward installation and replacement.

Suitable for

• Plumbing connections requiring a 1/4" GW male thread
• Pneumatic lines and fittings where metal connectors are needed
• Instrumentation and laboratory setups using GW 1/4" threaded interfaces
• Repair and maintenance of equipment with standard 1/4" GW threads

Key specifications

• Material: brass (machined)
• Thread type: external GW 1/4" (male)
• Connection style: threaded male fitting
• Typical applications: plumbing, pneumatics, instrumentation, general-purpose threaded joints
• Construction: solid metal body for improved mechanical strength

How to use

Ensure mating female GW 1/4" thread is clean and free of debris before installation. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or tape to the male threads if a fluid-tight seal is required. Hand-start the connector into the female thread to avoid cross-threading, then tighten using a suitable wrench until secure; avoid excessive torque that could damage threads. For pneumatic or pressurized systems, perform a leak check after installation and re-tighten if necessary within recommended torque limits.

Usage recommendations

Use compatible GW 1/4" female fittings and select thread sealant rated for the media and temperature in your system. For corrosive environments or where galvanic corrosion is a concern, consider system material compatibility and appropriate protective measures.
