Can this be used with ordinary air hoses found at gas stations?

The dimensions on this are as for the Schrader valve; unchanged and universal since 1893. So, yeah, gas station fittings will work fine.

This will not work on gas station air hoses it will only work on portable air compressors that has a female thread on the end of the hose after you attach it to the female end of hose of your portable air compressor then hook it up to your valve stem, I have a V-Air portable air compressor that I use this adapter on and it does the joben

I use the small propane tanks. They screw right into the valve on the back. I would assume that with a hose adapter, you could use the large propane tanks too.

I would think so. This tool has the same connection that the average air compressor at gas stations, garages, and home compressors have.

it's got a real particular q/d fitting, it looks close to a standard 1/4" air hose fitting but it's not, I used it with a Camco BBQ so it was a straight up match for me, not sure if it's available seperately.

No, i believe it's for propane only. The connector hose fits the same propane tanks that an outdoor grill uses.

I have used a compressor and the air pump at our gas station, both worked fine.

Sorry, I don't really know. It depends on whether the hose and nozzle attachments fit the air valve on your tube. I use it for an inflatable dinghy.

I don't know 100% becuase i haven't tried it, but I think its very likely. The connection hose appears to be a standard snap-type connector.

Not sure, but found out that the Home Depot close to me does not sell air hoses with the same quick disconnects. Have to say though - great machine - used it for off roading in the desert to air my tires after airing them down.

Yes. The hose is a standard size for Nat Gas and the only issue is making sure you have the proper fitting to mate it to your BBQ. You can purchase fittings at a local hardware or big box store. Just remember, as others indicate in their ratings, to use proper sealant tape and leaks should not be an issue!

The appearance of this quick connect fitting is almost identical to that of the normal air line connector, with the connect/disconnect operation being identical. However, the female fitting will fit only a gas line male fitting (such as the one installed travel trailers) and it is likely that there are other safety related features. I think maybe the materials used are designed to prevent sparks or static electricity. I'd strongly recommend not using air line fittings for propane applications.

Yep. It simply regulates pressure. It will connect current at 30# and disconnect at 50#, through electrical contacts. Therefore not advisable to use where fuel or gas vapors may be present. I substituted the original air regulator on a Craftsman Air compressor with an identical unit.

Yes I'm sure you could buy them at a store that sells hoses. Just make sure you take one with you so you can match the size. Just remember you'll probably be decreasing the efficiency of the air conditioner.

No! The pressure needed is much higher than that offered by a gas station air hose.

No, it won't. It can be laid down and be used as any gas can that you would use a siphon hose with.

I got a portable air tank and fitted a hose and nozzle for about $40. Works great and can be carried to flat tires. Some gas stations offer "free air" just look for the highest psi.

Larger bore/ diameter and the spacing is different. Regular air fittings will not work for gas.
