- 30 essential air accessories in a durable clear storage case for easy access and organization
- Includes blow gun with 5 different nozzle attachments
- Contains a dual air chuck and ball foot style air chuck for various inflation applications
- Includes 2 quick connect couplers, 11 quick connect plugs, pencil tire gauge, 2 inflation needles, PTFE tape, 4 hose fittings
- Durable Steel construction with zinc plating for corrosion resistance
Anyway, I'm surprised by all the good reviews of this kit. The tire pressure gauge only goes to 40 PSI and is flimsy and inaccurate. It went right in the trash. Useless. The quick-connect couplers thread *very* poorly on my excellent Goodyear 3/8" hose. This results in leakage. Lots of it. And all the teflon tape in the world doesn't help. The blower gun does what it should, but boy is it flimsy. As for the plethora of other attachments... meh. I doubt I'll ever use most of them.
If I were to do this over again, I would buy just one quality brass quick connect socket for attaching tools. For the other end of my hose I'd buy one male plug to connect to my compressor's quick connect socket. Then I'd get a blower tool and an inflation tool with built-in gauge. (FWIW I just got the "ARB ARB605 Blue Inflator with Gauge and Braided Hose" from amazon, and it is excellent. 5 stars for that gem.)
So, my advice is to skip this kit. It's garbage and has a lot of stuff you'll probably never use.
Oh, lest anyone think I just don't know how to attach a coupler to a hose, I picked up a good one at the local auto parts store and it works perfectly. No leak, simple to attach tools.
Edit: Made in USA couplers and plugs by Milton (Milton Ind/INCOM S-711 M-Style Coupler And Plug): http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00173CTRQ/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00 I have two of these on their way to me from amazon.com, now. Based on others' reviews, I expect them to be perfect.
Amazon how about a search filter for "Made in USA"?? Boy would I appreciate that...
Buy Primefit IK2001S-30 1/4-Inch NPT Air Accessory Kit with Storage Case, 30-Piece Now
I just bought a compressor and needed fittings. This kit fit the bill perfectly. All fittings are of good quality and the kit contains everything you might need to outfit a compressor and plenty of air tools. The only negative is the quick connects. You can't just plug a nipple into them. You must first release the lock and then insert the nipple.What you pay is what you get.Did not like it and hence returned it.
Quality not great. More like a toy then a tool.
Again it comes down to what can you expect in this low price.
A little higher spend can fetch u better one.
Want Primefit IK2001S-30 1/4-Inch NPT Air Accessory Kit with Storage Case, 30-Piece Discount?
I bought this at a really low price, and didn't expect too much out of it. I mainly just wanted the air gun, and was happy to get a few extra pieces.Unfortunately, the air gun "leaked". Without depressing the trigger, it would blow a light stream of air. This would cause my small 1 gallon, 1HP compressor to take a very long time to charge, and to discharge even more rapidly. Also, one of the quick connect coupler's ball bearings fall out when switching tools. It works fine when only one falls out. But leaks very bad when the second and/or third BB falls out. The other quick connect coupler works fine. All the non-movable parts work fine.
So, maybe you'll get lucky and have everything work. I wouldn't buy this again, but still got most of my money's worth because it was so cheap.Great product for the price. Has everything you need for filling tires , balls , as well as blowing air. Comes with more than enough fittings . Ive had similar in the past but have misplaced them. With the handy storage case , i dont think i'll be losing these.
