These compressors have a different thread than normal nitto fittings, so out with the tap and die sets.

Hey Silent,
Can I ask what fitting you started with to put into the end of the compressor? I'm guessing 1/4 bsp? Then what did you cut it to, to get it to fit?
I'm trying to do something similar and put a pressure valve off a tee piece and couldn't find anything to fit. Grr
Thank you
Mick

@ Srex idealy you want a non return valve and may be an air manifold to fit the pressure valve to
Cheers mate, I have seen the manifolds but only in npt. I need to be able to get out of the compressor first, either npt or bsp to be able to attach one. I've already been to a couple of fitting shops including Enzed and it's not a common thread which is annoying.

@ strex I think looking at the compressor they have used a bolt thread from the head through the handle to
the nitto fitting,,,,, either 10mm x 1.25 or 8mm x 1.25,,,,,,,,, Sounds right to me.
Are you mounting it as well ,if so Id remove the handle, but thats just me.lol

I did originally have the handle off 3dogs but that was a different thread again. So on that one handle there were 3 different threads. Talk about making it confusing. Haha
