Pressure Gauge Snubber 5000 psi
The Value Brand pressure gauge snubber installs directly on a 1/4 NPT port to suppress pressure spikes before they reach a gauge. It is suited for technicians and maintenance crews who need reliable readings in hydraulic or pneumatic systems where pulsation can damage instruments. The stainless steel body resists corrosion in harsh environments. It operates from 0 to 70 degrees C or 32 to 158 degrees F.
Capacity and headroom
Rated for a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi with a burst pressure of 6000 psi, the filter handles steady high-pressure service while providing a safety margin against transient surges. The 316 stainless steel element filters debris and dampens pulsation so gauges stay accurate longer. It runs out of headroom when system spikes exceed the burst rating, so it is not for applications with uncontrolled pressure transients above that level.
Build quality and daily use
The all-stainless construction withstands chemical exposure and vibration in industrial settings. A 1/4 NPT thread fits standard gauge ports without adapters, and the compact 1 5/8 in overall length keeps the assembly short for tight panels. The filter-type snubber requires no moving parts, reducing maintenance to occasional element inspection. It is not for buyers who need an adjustable orifice or a piston-type dampener for variable flow conditions.

Questions about this item
Will the 1/4 NPT thread on this snubber match the 1/4 NPT port on my older gauge?
Yes, the 1/4 inch NPT connection on this snubber is a standard pipe thread that fits existing 1/4 NPT gauge ports without adapters.
How can I verify the filter is suppressing pressure spikes at 5000 psi?
After installation, observe the gauge needle; it should remain steady without flutter when the system reaches 5000 psi, confirming the filter element is damping pulsations.
Does the package include thread sealant or a 316 stainless sealing washer?
The box contains only the snubber filter itself; thread sealant or a compatible sealing washer must be purchased separately for installation.
