So, this fitting doesn't need any of that thread sealant stuff? Just clips and go?

That's right, this E-Z Clip fitting is designed to avoid leaks without needing any thread sealant. Just make sure to use the properly sized clips and cage for a secure connection.

Question by: Kurt W on Nov 8, 2025, 7:38 AM

got a -08 GH134 hose, is this the straight E-Z Clip fitting that takes the 0.50 lifesaver braze nipple end?

Answer by: Customer Support on Nov 10, 2025, 6:03 AM

For a -08 hose setup, this one matches that combo. It is an E-Z Clip Series straight fitting for -08 hose, and the braze end is a 0.50 Lifesaver male connection, also called a Lifesaver Braze Nipple.
