1/4" Flare Tailpiece Washer
This nylon flare washer creates a reliable seal between 1/4" MFL (Male Flare) fittings and swivel nuts. While flare connections are technically designed for a metal-to-metal seal, even small scratches or imperfections in the metal can lead to persistent gas or liquid leaks. This washer acts as a gasket to bridge those gaps and ensure a pressurized seal.
It's a common replacement part for gas and beer lines using MFL disconnects or tailpieces. You won't need to mess with Teflon tape on your flare threads when using these; just drop the washer onto the nose of the MFL fitting before tightening your swivel nut.
- Material: Durable Nylon
- Size: Fits standard 1/4" MFL fittings
- Compatibility: Works with swivel nuts, MFL disconnects, and flare tailpieces

This is a must have for your draft system!
By No Leak Larry · September 19, 2018
As my headline states, this item is a MUST HAVE for any draft system! These should be placed inline where ever a swivel nut is used (or metal to metal connections). These are a lifesaver and definitely help prevent leaks.
Buy a dozen of them. Heck... buy 2 dozen!
