Overview
Filling Valve with M8x1 Thread Schrader Valve with Sealing Ring Length 20 mm Hexagon Metal Gold for Pressure Vessels

The filling valve with a lower metric thread M8x1 is used for inflating air into pressure vessels, air receivers of compressors, and other devices that have an opening with this thread. The upper part features a standard thread for tyre valves, allowing you to attach a standard inflation nozzle from a compressor or pump. Between the two threads is a hexagon for tightening with a spanner, and beneath it is a black sealing ring that seals the connection with the flat around the opening. The valve has a total length of 20 mm, so it does not protrude too far above the surface of the vessel. It is a small but useful part for workshops, garages, and DIY projects.

The metric thread M8x1 is a fine thread with a pitch of 1 mm, used in smaller pressure vessels, pneumatic components, and various fittings. Unlike tapered pipe threads, the seal here is mainly provided by the ring under the hexagon, so it is important that the seating surface around the opening is clean and flat. The lower threaded part measures 9 mm, the upper part with the thread for the inflation nozzle is 8 mm, and the hexagon has a height of 3 mm. The metal body is gold in colour with a smooth surface, on which any dirt or damage to the thread is easily visible.

Before installation, clean the thread and seating surface around the opening from dirt and remnants of old sealing. Screw the valve into a vessel that is not under pressure, and tighten it with a spanner on the hexagon just enough for the ring to seat well. Excessive force could damage the fine thread. After inflating the air, check the tightness of the connection by applying soapy water. If bubbles appear around the hexagon, gently tighten the valve or check the condition of the ring. Protect the upper thread from dust and moisture, for example, with a cap from a standard tyre valve.

The filling valve with M8x1 thread is a practical solution for anyone needing to inflate air into a smaller pressure vessel or their own reservoir. The lower metric thread connects it to the vessel, and the upper thread connects to the inflation nozzle of a compressor, pump, or pressure gauge. The hexagon allows for firm tightening with a spanner, and the ring seals the connection without additional sealant. The compact length of 20 mm saves space, and the part is suitable as a replacement or for new constructions. An advantage is the standard upper thread, which fits common nozzles and valve caps.
