This is not knock off material. I've purchase additional fitting from Rapid Air. I do question if the inside diameter of the Blue Tube isn't what it should be and is pushing the O -rings out of that groove. I think that is the problem and that is what to care of Nota4re connections. I've...

f I am re-posting this portion of conversations because I believe that this is my problem but I am not sure if his solution is so good. Expanding this material and then having it shrink back so that it will fit is ????? "It is imperative to have the Max Line fit over the o-rings with out...

I'll try to get a picture of what I have here. I am not very good at doing that. I'll try though. I also have a call into Rapid Air Tech line. I'll probably get some input on Monday. They are pretty good about replying

I like your analysis. And I think you are right. I am thinking about getting the expander tool, but since it seems like no one else has done this there is not recommendation by Rapid Air. I wonder if it safe or wise to go this.

I have lot of fitting that I never used. I looked at each one and on line it shows two 0 rings on fitting treads. Not the treads where the outside nut is use to compress together. Why could you not use more then the two 0rings? What damage could that do.

I disagree with you on this one. It may have slipped on easily for you, but not for me. Making me question, the inside diameter of the tube. I've seen the rings move when pushing on the tube.

Nota4re has brought up something that is very real. I've been very very careful to slip the blue tub over those O-rings when making the connection. After having leaks (and I've had my share) and taking apart I've noticed that the rings have moved from where they were. So now I am of the belief...

MaxLine is what I have. No Acetone for cleaning , I understand I have and continue to use the provided de-burring tool. Going with soap / water no more grease.

Thanks for taking the time to read and explain. I am somewhat at a loss too. I won't give up. I'll get it sooner or later with help from people like you. As far as blowing that connection off, I'm thinking that I may have screwed up. In reading several of the comments on how to stop the...

Just so I understand and don't blow my face off next time. Talking about screw on rapid air fittings Talking about a T-fitting right now. Your have four items to work with. fitting it self. rubber seals a split ring and nut that screws all this together. The T-fitting and the nut keeps it from...

Well for the third time I've taken apart the T-fitting , tube, and tube to pipe connection so that I mate with the compressor. I only had a small leak at the fitting from tube to iron pipe. No matter how hard i tightened it wouldn't stop leaking. I was testing with about 50 PSI. I then...

First of all, thanks to Rapid Air tech. He called withing hours of my request. He assured me that they will seal and that i probably didn't have the tube all the way tight into the fitting. He also said that yes you can over tighten and break the ring. He told me to take it apart and try...

I just finished installing my Rapid Air 3/4 inch air system. I kept the connections down to a minimum to avoid air leaks. So I have just one T-fitting and two manifolds at the end of the lines. I cannot get the T-fitting to stop leaking air. There isn't any rocket science here but I'm still...

I cannot believe how much variation there is with MC connectors between 3/8 and 1/2 inch. I have a 8/3 MC cable and cannot find a connector to fit properly. The 3/8 with a screw to attach cable won't go on. i can't find 1/2 in the same style. The 1/2 squeeze fitting is way to large and won't...

I guess I'll just go down to the nearest Home Depot with a cut off piece of my MC cable and see what fits.

My question concern is what size of conductor do I need for 8/3 Mc cable. I am aware of all the different styles
