Sierra Threaded Nozzle 18-99543 for Pressure and Vacuum Tester
The Sierra 18-99543 is a threaded nozzle designed as a replacement accessory for pressure and vacuum testing equipment used in marine engine service. It threads securely onto a compatible tester body, allowing technicians to apply and hold pressure or vacuum on fuel system and cooling system components during diagnostic checks. Because it is a small, low-cost wear item, it is a practical part to keep on hand so a tester does not sit idle waiting on a lost or damaged nozzle.
This nozzle is sized for a threaded connection, letting it seat firmly on the tester without slipping under pressure, which helps keep readings accurate during leak-down and pressure testing procedures. At just 0.1 pounds, it adds negligible weight to a tool kit or tackle box, making it easy to store as a spare alongside other diagnostic accessories.
