Brass Straight Tire Chuck - Lock On - Quick Release

Brass Straight Tire Chuck - Lock On - Quick Release
  • Easier and faster air-filling - chuck locks on to valve stem for hands-free operation
  • Great effort-saver for large inflation jobs; quick-release lever for easy removal
  • Solid brass chuck precision machined for leak-free performance
  • Straight design for easier connection; also available in right angle
  • Air inlet female 1/4" NPT for all standard air hose fittings

Like one of the previous reviewers, I found these tire chucks to be defective in the design of the seal. I ordered 3 units for various air tanks and compressors, and each of them did not work at all. Basically, the seal between the brass housing and piston is made out rubber that is too soft, and at the normal 125 psi air pressure the rubber seal was pushed out of the chuck through the gab between the housing and the piston. I couldn't get any of them to work at all...no air in any tire. How frustrating when you are in the middle of a project on the farm. The only other possibility is that they machined the housing with too much room between the piston and the housing, and maybe no rubber seal (regardless of how stiff) would work with excessive space at that point. I'm looking for a refund unless the manufacterer fixed the problem and sends me new ones. These chucks might work at extremely low pressure, but I wouldn't bet on it. They are junk.

Unfortunately I found this product to be far less than expected. 9 times out of 10 when I try to use it, the cylindrical gasket becomes dislodged and will not seal, either on the valve stem or internally to stop the flow of air when you remove it from the valve stem. One time this seal shot across the garage under the air flow!

As a result, I am very disapointed in this product

After 30 days of use, the tire chucks have held up pretty good. The handle fell off of one but was easily re attached. Much better to use than the ones that are angled. You don't have to remove the hub caps for wheels that have short valve stems.

The clip for attaching this item is good for cars and trucks, but for bicycles, it catches in the spokes if one is not careful. Overall it is a quality item which should last for many years.
