For less than $30 I am deeply satisfied. All metal, excellent dampened gauge, very solid chuck. Need to replace the quick disconnect because its euro standard not us.

The Euro air hose fittings look like your common US milton types but they are different and don't interchange. I have tried USA fittings as have bought tools with them on but they don't work in the Euro couplers. I still prefer the British PCL fittings which are different again.

It does look nice for under $30:thumbup: Where did you get it and what's the part #?

There's a good chance that fitting will be "metric" BSP threads not NPT. And 1/4" is one of the sizes that doesn't interchange even with a heavy shot of pipe dope. Adapter ****** and a female threaded plug is probably easier than sourcing a BSP threaded plug.

Those things are as bad as Lincolns. When I was over there I ran Schraders and really liked those. I'd still be running them now if they weren't so expensive and difficult to source in the States.
