Manifold assembly for portable airtank?

[BrianJ]

Anyone know where I can source a manifold assembly for a portable airtank? (has safety & fill valve) One i have is 5 gal. Even with the valve closed, tank is loosing air. Thought I try and replace the assembly before buying another airtank.

Does HF, Northern, Lowes, HD carry this part? Seeing that a new tank is ~$30, I rather buy a new tank, if the valve is more than $10 to my door/picked up.

TIA,
Brian

You know, unless I'm going crazy, I just saw one about a week ago at an auto parts store. I wasn't looking for one but I was just browsing and saw it. I can't remember which store, but it had to be either Auto Zone or Advanced Auto Parts. Good luck

BTW, I used to have a portable tank that leaked too. I sold it.

ive got a portable tank, but the fill valve is a standard tire stem, it hold air well, and is very very rarely used, only in a support van for long races as a back up if the compressor fails(it has several times, for random reasons) but im not actually sure what the new/good tanks use

build your own manifold from fittings and a ball valve .........for filling use a male end that fits you compressor air hose........if you want the schrader valve option you can buy them thru milton .........and if you want to get fancy, put quick connects on and voila you have a resvoir for a small compressor with extra capacity..........you can buy pre drilled manifolds at hf and such..........get creative.......
