Product description
AirCraft Metal Flow Control 8mm x 1/2" Male Thread (SG MSC08-04)
At a Glance: Precision metal flow control valve with 8mm push-in tube port and 1/2" male thread—dial in stable airflow and smoother pneumatic motion.
When your pneumatic system uses a larger threaded port but still needs precise airflow control, the AirCraft SG MSC08-04 Metal Flow Control is built to deliver smooth, adjustable performance. It connects 8mm PU tubing via a push-in port to a 1/2" male threaded connection, letting you fine-tune airflow for cylinder speed control, stabilising air circuits, and reducing harsh bursts in compressed air lines. Tough metal construction makes it a dependable choice for workshop and industrial pneumatics where reliability is non-negotiable.
Restrict airflow in controlled steps to improve repeatability, reduce jolts, and keep actuators and air circuits running predictably under real working conditions.

Extra Info
Extra Information
- Ideal for pneumatic cylinders, actuator speed control, air circuits, and regulated compressed air lines.
- For best sealing, use clean, square-cut 8mm tubing and ensure it is fully seated in the push-in port.
- Many flow controls are directional—check for any arrow/markings on the body (if present) to confirm recommended flow direction.
- Admin info (not for specs table): Confirm product weight and dimensions from your database / packaging.
Pro Tip
- Adjust under working pressure while cycling the actuator. Start more open, then restrict gradually until motion is smooth, consistent, and repeatable.
Safety
Safety
- Always depressurise the air system before installing, removing, or adjusting pneumatic fittings.
- Wear eye protection when working with compressed air lines and push-in fittings.
- Do not over-tighten threaded connections—tighten securely and use an appropriate thread seal (if required).
- After installation, perform a leak test and verify stable operation before returning equipment to service.
