Review: A Winner - Works exactly as described...easily pushes onto valve and easy removal with 0.00-0.10 air loss. No fidgeting to maintain air input. Attaches to valve stem without having to hold it in place.
Review: Worthy upgrade to my 12v Smittybilt compressor - Used this to upgrade the inconvenient screw on style chuck that came on my Smittybilt offroad 12v compressor. Huge improvement! Had to also order a 1/4 npt barbed fitting for the hose, however that may not be necessary for everyone if you've already got a 1/4 fitting to attach to. This open flow chuck allows me to turn the compressor on and leave it running while I check air pressure with a guage since most 12v portable compressor don't have a pressure switch to shut them off when pressure builds. If the psi in the tire isn't quite there, just push the chuck back on the valve stem and keep filling. With this chuck you just push it on to the valve stem and it locks on automatically, no need to press the button and hope it locks on tight enough. The only time you need to touch the botton on the chuck is to release it. Its very easy to press on with zero air leak. Solid feel, and has some weight to it. They have a bigger model that might have been even nicer for a few bucks more.

## Features

- QUICK-CONNECT: Patented "push-to-lock" self-locking nozzle instantly grabs onto the tire valve stem with a simple push, providing a secure, air-tight seal every time (for standard vehicle Schrader valves)
- QUICK-RELEASE: Quick-release button allows for instant detachment from the tire valve with zero air loss.
- IMPORTANT: This is an OPEN FLOW air chuck that must connect to an inline tire inflator gauge using the 1/4" F-NPT threaded end. NOT suitable for direct connection to air compressor hose lines. Please confirm compatibility before ordering.
- BUILT TO LAST: Engineered with lightweight yet durable aluminum alloy for unmatched reliability. Simple design with fewer moving parts ensures consistent performance.
- BUILT TO LAST: Backed by a Lifetime Warranty from JACO, industry leaders producing superior automotive tools and accessories for over 35 years.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Air Chuck
*by C***R on August 4, 2025*

These are great chucks. Clip on easy and stay on until the release button is pressed. Remember that these are for air gauges only and are not meant for air compressors. There is no check valve to stop flow. For air compressors the S2 series would be used.
