Air Line Repair

Air Line Repair

NOTE: A soapy water solution can be applied to the air lines to verify the location of air leaks.

1. If a leak is detected in an air line, it can be repaired by carefully making a good, clean, straight cut. Trim back the outer covering of the air line 16 - 20 mm (0.63 - 0.78 inch) to reveal the white inner line. Install a repair fitting and wrap securely with electrical tape.
2. If multiple leaks are detected, install an entire new air line.
