The 0275696 1/4" air fitting is an OEM replacement component used in the pneumatic systems of Helix LP and compatible SprayTech HVLP sprayers. It provides secure, leak-free connections between air lines, regulators, valves, and other system components, ensuring consistent airflow to the turbine or compressor for reliable spray performance.
Over time, fittings can become cracked from vibration, corroded from moisture exposure, or damaged during maintenance. A faulty air fitting can cause air leaks, pressure drops, and inconsistent atomization, leading to poor finish quality. Replacing it with this genuine fitting restores proper air delivery and maintains system integrity.

When replacing an air fitting, inspect these associated components for wear or damage.
Check the connected hose for cracks, swelling, or deterioration at the fitting interface.
Many fittings use O-rings for sealing; inspect and replace if compressed or damaged.
Ensure the component being connected has clean, undamaged threads or ports.
