can this be used a straight push on type air chuck or must it be threaded on to the valve stem? Saw where one purchaser had to grind out inner threads

Mine came with both outlets threaded ! ! Which makes the angled outlet useless, straight outlet would have to be screwed on ! ! I drilled out both outlets which required using a carbide drill bit. Maybe they resolved this. If not you better have the right tools to fix the problem or don't buy it.

Yes you can push it on a standard stem but it trys to hang a little bit when takeing it off if it's not pulled off straight but to me that's a good thing because it kinda locks itself on so you don't have to kept a lot of pressure on the stem while filling the tire with air. Milton makes very good products that I've seen. Good luck to you. Thanks BK

It is a straight push design, the threads are oversize so you can pull the air chuck a little sideways and it will usually hold on to the valve stem with out your holding it by hand. Most tire shops and mechanics use this type. Just push it onto valve stem an then tilt it in a direction that lets the weight of the hose make the chuck hang on. Also a great chuck if you just hold it while airing tire.I have used this type for years on bicycles, motorcycles golf carts, autos, and especially on motorhomes with dual tires ( which the straight design is usually needed.

I rode motorcycles for years and owned a dealership. I'd recommend the short "L" shaped piece for good air chuck access.. You will want to have the wheel re-balanced, because the valve extension probably weighs an ounce or more - far too much weight, and that would shake the bike at mid- to high speeds unless you rebalance.BV

you purchase a spindle adapter for this chuck that matches the threading on your spindle

There ARE threaded holes, but in My case (fitting it to a Ridgid 4512) I wanted to shift the tube over a bit. Drilling new holes and tapping them was not too difficult.

I bought a MT2 shaft with a male 1X8 thread on the end. I'll have to do some digging to remember where I bought it. It is very handy and I have screwed a variety of things onto it, including my scroll chuck. I have screwed several different sizes of jam chucks onto this shaft installed in the tail stock and it works fine.

with the model 506 you have to push the chuck against the tire valve and hold it on while filling the tire. The model 516 chuck has internal threads that hold it on the tire valve while filling.

It function just like any other air chuck, except with this one it has a latch to hold the chuck on the valve stem. It is difficult to use by itself because of the clip for the valve stem.I use mine on the end of a flexible hose connected to a pistol grip air gauge. Works great in hard to reach places like the valve stems on my tractor tires which are on the inside. I can connect the cuck securely to the valve stem and control the flow of air with the pistol grip gauge, when the air in the tire has reached the correct pressure I can easily remove the chuck.Hope this makes sense.

it locks on to the threaded stem, it might work too good in your case, as it could quickly blow up the bike tube if you are pumping a lot of pressure from an air compressor. It will work on all tire stems if you have enough of the stem to catch it on the threads.

I had the same problem, my spindle with a morse taper was fine but my chuck was siezed The new chuck fit great with one tap of the rubber mallot, and works great and has not come loose. I hope this helps.

It comes with one but good luck using it with the chuck attached to the coil cord. I am still looking for the chuck that is used with any manual pump so I would be able to attach it to the coil hose chuck without any air leaking through. I really don't understand why they did not supply the chuck with the lever that seals the stem on the Presta valve while pushing the inside pin and fully opening the access to the bicycle tire.

If you already have the pilot hole drilled, then what is the hesitation about driving the lag bolt in? It will either go or it won't. If it only goes part way before the drill stops, then you can always finish driving it in with a box end wrench or socket wrench or drill the pilot hole to 7/16" and try again. This is not rocket science at this point. I'm done.

Yes it will, but as soon as you remove the chuck the tire will deflate due to no valve core.

To replace an existing air chuck, yes, as long as you have a pipe thread on it I don't see why it wouldn't work.

Although the valve of the pump would screw onto a standard tire "stem valve" the relatively small amount of air that the pump itself displaces would not be an efficient way of putting air into your tire. It is absolutely great for the intended purpose of putting air into air shocks, but would be frustrating to use on tires.

The threaded stem is the same size as the stem it goes over, the tire stem. Your valve cap will fit on, your pump will fit etc. It is a standard schrader valve size, 8mm diameter

I used the nut on the threaded stem to secure to sink. The stem was not long enough to reach through my standard over the top mount sink, so I had to notch my granite little wider than od of the nut.

It should be pressed against the valve stem without bending the valve stem. On my SUV, it can be done very easily. But, on my Royal Enfield motorcycle, I had to maneuver it as I had to insert the digital tire pressure gauge in between the spokes and measure the pressure with the dial facing the opposite side due to the angle and spokes. Of course, I can read the value after measuring and removing it from the wheel.
