Is There Such a Thing

[JTrac]

Probably a long shot here but I am wanting to hook up an Air Lift Wireless One compressor to my new Trailer Saver BD3. I would like to be able to quickly disconnect the air line from the compressor to the hitch so I can remove it when needed. I have looked for a fitting that would attach to the 1/4" air hose from the compressor on one end and screw to the Schrader valve on the hitch on the other end. Does anyone know if there such a thing? I have googled and googled and can't find anything but I may be describing it wrong.

I'm not exactly sure what you're doing but you can get double shutoff couplers - shutoffs in both ends. I had a cheapy compressor in my 5er basement and I just mounted it above the pinbox for my 5AB. I teed in and added a second Schrader fitting - one to let air out and the other to leave the compressor quick-coupler connected to and I never disturb it. The compressor valves were leaking a little so I dug thru my toolbox and found a tiny check valve to put in the line between the airbag and the Schrader to the compressor. You can get anything you need from a valve company or pneumatic/hydraulic supplier. Craig

Why would you worry about the bags deflating when disconnected? If the line is disconnected...then I would presume the 5er wold be as well? No need to keep air in them!

Yes they do come apart easy!

My TS3 is on the way. I will use one of these in the line between the compressor and the hitch that will be run across the bed.

Thanks, that may be what I need. I would hope they are easy to disconnect. Just wondering how to keep the bags from deflating when disconnected from the compressor hose.

This site would have a large bore chuck and adaptor.

I just googled "air hose quick disconnect fittings" and many sources popped up. I always select 'IMAGES' when I search google for items and then click on the image for more detailed info when I find something interesting...

Tronair k3706 is a screw on high pressure chuck.

Ditch the Schrader and use quick disconnect fittings. This is what I did so I can use the compressor to fill tires etc. I ended up have to go to a Triad/Parker Hannifin store http://www.triadtechnologies.com to find what I needed because I also added valves and an assortment of fittings so I could adjust input. I have found the stores very help full.

Can you use something like a Milton quick connect fitting with a tee?
