This is a set of 2 air chucks for almost anyones compressor needs. They are very easy to attach to existing hoses. These also have the ability to lock on to the threads of your valve stems.
Okay this set of air chucks are only average quality. They do not lock on all valve stems with an air tight fit. Some of them you have to hold a little bit of pressure towards the stem to have a better seal. You have to keep the hose inline and upright or the weight of the hose will cock the nozzle a little bit and it will leak air. So as long as you leave it inline with a little bit of down pressure they work perfectly.
Now for the locking onto the valve stems while using these chucks is fairly simple. There is a metal crescent shape that will lock into the the threads on the valve so it wont fly off at you when you release the pressure. This cresent does not seem to be very durable and bends after prolonged use. I recommend that you depress the handle to pull the cresent out as you are sliding it down on the stem to reduce damage to it. Same concept of releasing it but as you are putting it on.
If you need some new air chuck fittings for your air compressor hoses these are not a bad choice. They are not built for commercial use but will work for many years for the normal use around the garage at your house. I would like to thank EP Family Corp and affiliates for sending me these air chucks to try out and share my opinion.
