Precision Pressure Monitoring for DIY and Industrial Use
Whether you are repairing an air compressor, building a custom hydroponic system, or upgrading your workshop's pneumatic tools, accurate pressure monitoring is crucial for safety and performance. The Y40 Pressure Gauge delivers precise readings in an ultra-compact form factor. Its center back mount design allows for flush, clean installations on control panels, regulators, and tight pipe fittings where space is limited.
Durable Dual-Scale Dial
Eliminate the need for manual conversions. This gauge features a clear, easy-to-read dual-scale dial. The outer red scale measures up to 180 PSI (Lb/in²), while the inner black scale measures up to 12 kg/cm ² (approx. 12 BAR / 1200 kPa). Encased in a rugged metal housing with a scratch-resistant face, it is built to withstand the vibrations and minor impacts common in workshop and industrial environments.
💡 Pro Tip from Our Technicians
"When installing any threaded pressure gauge, a proper seal is essential to prevent slow leaks. We highly recommend wrapping the 1/8" brass male thread with 2 to 3 layers of Teflon tape (plumber's tape) before screwing it into your fitting. Do not over-tighten by twisting the dial face; always use a wrench on the brass hex nut at the base. Need help finding the right adapters or fittings for your project? Drop by our Sham Shui Po store, and our team will help you piece together exactly what you need!"
