Small brass pressure gauge snubber with 1/4 NPT threads

Value Brand

Value Brand Pressure Gauge Snubber 1/4 NPT 1500 psi Brass Filter

SKU CH-MZHS-7NFWT

A brass filter snubber with 1/4 NPT threads dampens pressure spikes up to 1500 psi to protect gauges in hydraulic and pneumatic systems

  • Product typeElectronic
  • Dampens pressure spikes with a brass filter element
  • Operates from 32 to 158 degrees Fahrenheit
  • Handles up to 1500 psi maximum operating pressure
  • Withstands burst pressure of 1800 psi for safety
  • Brass construction resists wear in demanding applications

Pressure Gauge Snubber 1/4 NPT

This brass snubber connects to a 1/4 inch NPT port and protects gauges from pressure spikes up to 1500 psi. It is intended for technicians and maintenance crews who need stable readings in hydraulic or pneumatic systems. The filter element smooths pulsation so instruments last longer.

Sustained Load Behaviour

The snubber operates continuously between 32 and 158 degrees Fahrenheit and withstands a burst pressure of 1800 psi. Its brass body and filter element resist wear during extended duty cycles without a corrosion resistant coating. Pressure suppression remains consistent as long as the system stays within the rated maximum operating pressure.

Installation Notes

Thread the 1/4 inch NPT connection directly into the port using standard pipe sealant; the overall length is 1 5/8 inches. The brass material is not corrosion resistant, so avoid prolonged exposure to aggressive fluids. California Proposition 65 warnings apply because the product contains chemicals linked to cancer and reproductive harm.

Questions about this item

Does the brass filter snubber generate heat or noise during continuous operation at 1500 psi?

The snubber is a passive brass filter with no moving parts, so it produces no noise and negligible heat while suppressing pressure spikes at up to 1,500 psi.

What thread type must my gauge or manifold have to connect this 1/4 in NPT snubber?

The snubber uses a 1/4 inch NPT connection, so the mating port on your gauge or manifold must also be 1/4 inch NPT for a direct fit.

Will the 1/4 in NPT brass snubber work with an older steel manifold rated for lower pressure?

The snubber handles up to 1,500 psi operating and 1,800 psi burst, so it is safe on older manifolds rated at or above those pressures; verify the manifold's own rating first.
