Overview
The nut is the part that gets rounded off, stripped or left behind, and a tube is useless without it. This Steel Inverted Flare Nut distributed by FleetPro Parts & Tires is the 3/8in SAE inverted flare nut that clamps a flared tube into its seat on truck and trailer air-brake and air-line connections. A nut that will not pull up - because the threads are chewed, the hex is rounded, or somebody substituted the wrong size - leaves a joint that seeps every time the system charges, and a seeping joint is the slow leak nobody finds until the truck will not build pressure. We stock these heavily right here in our Hanover Park, Illinois warehouse to ensure lightning-fast shipping for fleets, diesel repair shops, and owner-operators nationwide.
A Nut That Backs Off Again: The 3/8in SAE Inverted Flare Nut Advantage
This nut is steel, not brass, and that is the point of the part. Steel takes the wrench without the hex corners deforming, so the nut can be pulled up to a real seat and backed off again at the next repair instead of rounding on the first pass. The 3/8in SAE inverted flare form is the standard on heavy-truck air lines: the nut drives the flared tube end into the matching inverted seat and the metal-to-metal cone does the sealing, with no thread sealant, no O-ring and nothing to age out.
Keep a few in the box - the nut costs almost nothing and the tube it saves does not. This Automann fitting is a direct replacement for highly searched industry numbers including Tectran S141-6, Tramec S41IFS-6 and 105X6, and it supersedes Automann 177.87416S.

Key features
- Steel Hex Holds Up: Steel takes the wrench without the corners deforming, so the nut pulls up to a real seat and backs off again instead of rounding on the first pass.
- Standard 3/8in SAE Inverted Flare: The common heavy-truck air line form, so it matches the seat already on the vehicle.
- Metal-to-Metal Seal: The flared cone does the sealing, with no thread sealant, no O-ring and nothing to age out.
- Cheap Insurance: A rounded or missing nut scraps an otherwise good tube, so a spare in the box saves the line.
- Wide Interchange: Covers Tectran S141-6, Tramec S41IFS-6 and 105X6 from one part number.
