The BEST Air Fittings Made?!?

I used youtube.com/post/Ugkx4ynqaujg7rZKFapA8s29kTpRszJGa… this for the first time today to replace the front wheel bearing on my rwd 98 dodge dakota. This had absolutely no issue removing or reinstalling the lug nuts and it took off the axle nut without any struggle. Sounds like it's got some muscle to it. Time will tell

Totally sold me on the backwards compatibility. Plus Milton sells repair seals too!

They are great fittings, I just bought a whole set myself. But people should be aware these things will DRAIN your air compressor like crazy. they flow 70% more and will drain your tank 70% faster it is pretty crazy. But hopefully because of the flow you will complete your job much faster.

Prevost makes the best push button coupler comes in high flow and standard.

That was a great review. Thank you!

Agree bro. I got the 3/8 Truflate/Automotive style with 1/2 hose. Another key is not to run the hose off the pressure regulator on the 30 gallon or smaller compressor. So the air has a straight shot through 1/2 fittings and hose all the way to the gun. The pressure measured shall be 90 PSI with the gun running. My IR impact has no problem with Honda crank bolt. I broke a few head off the bolts on frozen chassis components.

Milton Coupler lasted less than 1 day hooked to my air impact, steel fitting had ball dents as well . I replaced with real 3/8" coupler, i have no idea of brand but not a problem since. I have also ordered a 3/8 and 1/4 stainless steel pressure washer couplers as experiment for use at ocean. Cheap at about 12.00 for complete coupler, 5000 psi, better seals and should let me use washer pressure guns as straight air guns as well, just not the air hoses as water hoses or would burst.

I discovered these about 2 months ago and they leave you shaking your head asking yourself how you put up with the m style for so long. When you change everything from the compressor to the tool to these v style high flow fittings and couplers, they will put a smile on your face for sure.

In my nearly 50 years of dealing with air tools, hoses, and fittings, unless you have gone to a significantly larger regulator the largest source of restricted air flow on most air systems will be the regulator itself.

I've never had any such issues with my 1/2" impact or any other pneumatic tools using the Industrial fittings (M style in some brands and D style in other brands, which is why I prefer to use the proper name of the different fittings, i.e. Industrial, Automotive, ARO and Lincoln) and I only have a small portable compressor which tops out at 120 PSI. But I only use non-slave-labor fittings. I suspect your problem was the female fittings which you said you got from Horrible Freight, which would have been made by slaves in china and probably had a terribly restrictive design. As you pointed out, the Industrial fittings flow almost twice as much air as that tool needs (as long as you use non-slave-labor fittings).

I'm super glad I found this video! My impact wrench never worked very good.. I have a huge compressor and never put any thought into the fittings. I did this switch today and WHAT A DIFFERENCE! Thank you for this video!

Milton makes the best air fittings. Upgraded my small pancake compressor to Milton V fittings from the regulator to the tool and it made a huge difference. This was a very helpful video Thank you

I run my compressor at 150 psi I run a 3/4 inch hose to my 1/2, 3/4 and 1 inch gun. My fittings are 1/2 inch id. For all my die grinders and smaller impacts I run a regulator down to 100 psi. Before I upgraded to the 3/4 inch hose I couldn’t remove 1 wheel on my semi with out having to wait on my compressor to catch up. The 3/8 inch hose was robbing so much power. My compressor is a water cooled 4 cylinder rated at 35 cfm @175 psi. I am running it at 1/3 rated speed at this speed it still makes 35 psi oil pressure.

“ allright what’s up y’all , i have a great video for y’all today “ now subscribe before you watch the video . 😳😂😂 Y’all are nuts!

I ordered an impact wrench on the way as I write this before I watched several videos of owners of same model complaining about the lack of its performance. So, was preparing myself to simply return and buy a more expensive wrench. That is until I watch this video and read all the comments from others. Change of plans, I just ordered the V style fittings and look forward to keeping the wrench that's coming. Thanks to all of you!

Sheldon Cooper's little brother shows you how to install new air QD fittings in a 22 m-i-n-u-t-e v-i-d-e-o. On and on and on and on it goes

Had universal KAR, since day one, and THEY NEVER LEAKED! Were, interchangeable with all but the supper long. But wimpy. Tandem compressor's set at 150! But WOW! Thanks for training an old man the deal! Can't what to upgrade my 8400 s/f shop ,Yesterday! Ashamed I was stupid for decades, but not anymore, You', the man! Most, clear and articulate!!!! Thank you sooo much, I'm so glad I subscribed, Please keep them coming!, Lee, FL

Dude thank you so much for showing me the light. I have been living a lie my whole career as a diesel mechanic using t style. I dont know how i could ever repay you. God bless you

What about the female coupler that comes mounted on the tank? Does it need to be replaced as well?

Yes high flow, when using this tool
