Will this create an air-tight water-tight seal around a 1/4" tubing?

No. It's a close fit, but will not seal. Depending upon your application, you might be able to apply a sealant that would satisfy, but these are made to reduce chafing of wiring or tubing that passes through a panel, not creating a seal.

I think you mean the diameter of the tubing? It's about 3/4". The tubing is smooth and rounded, should slide into a tight spot easily.

The size of air hose is up to you. You need to provide the standard 1/4" NPT connector or I guess any other fitting you prefer.

continued from previous comment.... if your overflow fitting was ever plugged for some odd reason...one 1/4" drill hole anywhere in the lid would also prevent any sort of air locking.

I would expect not, as it crimps in a hexagonal pattern & the wall thickness of air hose is probably too thin to compress to a good seal

It will work witrh any 3" or 4" connection. However, it should only be used as a quick fix until a tried and true wax seal can be installed. Mine started leaking after less thann a year and when I removed it was soggy. Not sure how something that is not waterproof is supposed to seal out water. Use at risk and like I said if you need a quick fix it is easy, but not lasting.

As long as the tube fits snugly through what you rig up, and there's good insulation around the edges to seal out the outside air, There's no reason it couldn't work.

yes it seals tight but it blocks 50% of the air flow to start with, i cut it out of mine

the connectors it is talking about are to connect the hoses and tools to the compressor. you cannot connect a 1/4" hose directly to the compressor, but they make "kits" that have all kinds of adapters for attaching to accessories so that you can inflate all kinds of balls, tires, small swimming pools, etc., etc. If you JUST want to connect a 1/4" hose and nothing else, you need to go to a hardware store and they can find the proper fittings to reduce the line down to 1/4". I tried to use mine for my airbrush but it was way too noisy to use in the house for that. hope this helps?

This will only work with 3/8" hose barbs. 1/4" is very small hose if you're referring to the threading you need to measure the actual barb on the fitting.

YES they can because they form an air-tight seal with the correct size tubing...

I don't believe it will matter other than it will reduce the flow somewhat. The only thing you will need to do is attach a fitting on the output of the pump to accommodate a 1 inch tube. If you are using the tetra filter you will need to to the same thing there as well.

I have one inch (none drip) tube running from the tap around the garden (more than 100 ft) and I have connected few of these drip lines into that. It works fine. But I have not tried connecting inch to 1/4 inch. But if you have enough water pressure, this should works.

I have used it to seal the cover gasket on an old Cadillac differential. No problems.

You can use waterproof shrink tubing to seal the connection. However that type of shrink tubing is expensive. The waterproof version is thickerand lined with submersible grade adhesive.

This should work on 1/4 inch and even down to sheet metal it comes with spacers for thicker applications

The inner diameter of the line needs to be 1/4 inch...so 1/4" hose is probably okay.
