I only know that the 1/4-18 NPT tap is what is needed to turn the head into something that can use US standard (SAE?)air quick disconnects, hose fittings, and tools. I'd be careful using it on the airbags as it's a relatively high volume high pressure pump. I use a hand pump to fill the airbags on our class C.
I take for granted that the OEM thread in the head is a metric thread. Do you know what the OEM threads are ?
Do you have ability to measure the thread pitch and outside of the male thread and weather it's straight or tappered ?
It would be easier for me to get matric to SAE adapter than to tap a new thread.
So far everyone that has this little compressor says it works OK for toping off tires, Thats what I'm looking for plus the ability to keep my Airbags to proper inflation. Don't want to spend the BIG bucks that Ride-rite wants for a pump kit.
