I just received this in the mail. I selected free shipping and waited for these to come so I could use my new air compressor.

When it arrivedI was was shocked to notice that there was one piece missing. This was especially odd since it is in clear packaging with each piece occupying a molded plastic space. No big deal since there were two more identical pieces, and I wouldn't need all three.

But... man do these things leak air. I used tephlon tape and wrenches to seal and tighten thembut they just wouldn't work. I wound up getting some quick attach pieces from my neighbor which work great.

Alsothe tire gauge and hand sprayer are CHEAP. I didn't care about the tire gauge, but the other piece I need/wanted. I feel like I could snap it into a few pieces with my bare hands. Not good.

Don't go cheap. Buy some quality parts.

Basically, here's what you get.

* A trigger nozzle for blowing air. It comes with a plastic reducer tip or a stepped brass tip if you want to fit it with an extension hose (handyI needed exactly that to blow the garbage out of a boxed car frame)

* A tire fill (handy)

* A 1/4" female quick coupler and assorted nipples and attachments (handy)

Others may have lucked out with tight fits but all of mine required plumbers tape when the nipples were installed. As far as them being solid brass,theoretically yeah, but they definitely went VERY heavy on the zinc and VERY light on the copper when they made the brass alloy. You pick up the fittings, they're light and tinny.

This is a good kit as a backup or for light duty homeowner use, but it will most definitely not last through heavy commercial/pro use. In my case, I bought a small pancake compressor for the shop that will serve in a backup/secondary role so these were OK to be tossed on a pouch, tied to the compressor and used for that.

Little stuff required tweaking. In addition to needing plumbers tape on the fittings, the trigger nozzle needed lube in the release piston since it was sticky and gritty, the plastic air tip still had injection flash around the hole and had to be opened up with an xacto in order to blow properly.

So, if you're just looking for a dirt cheap accessory kit, this is OK. It's cheap, it's serviceable, it contains some little random fittings that you might not think to buy individually but if you ever find yourself needing one, you'll be glad you had them on hand. If you need pro grade stuff or are someone who expects everything to last for a while, these ain't it. They're in that 'Harbor Freight' level of 'adequate quality with low expectations'.

Don't buy this stuff. The fittings are OK but the nozzle and chunk are junk. The allowed free air flow straight out of the box and were useless for anything other than kids toys or paperweights. The tire gauge is only passable but I didn't buy this set for this item. And, or course, Amazon was really helpful with the return.

Pros solid brass fittings.

Cons none. I wish they included a bag with fittings. i just keep my fittings in my bostitch 3 nailgun bag.

note talking to my friend he said the red handle on the air gun eventually weakens and gun eventually fails to work properly. i guess we'll see.
