Analog Tire Inflator with Pressure Gauge, 15 Hose, Made in USA

Milton (#516) Straight Foot Chuck Tire Inflator Gauge - 15" Hose and Lock-On Threads

Milton Industries, a leading manufacturer in the industry, has developed this essential pneumatic tool that is ideal for any vehicle trunk, home garage, or automotive shop. The Milton Tire Inflator Gauge features a dual head chuck, where one of the heads is parallel to the extension, allowing for easier access to tire valves. Both heads have the capability to lock onto the threads, enabling the user to not have to hold the chuck while inflating, making one-hand inflation a breeze.

Constructed with heavy-duty materials, this inflator gauge is built to withstand extreme use and conditions, ensuring long-lasting performance. Equipped with a magnifying lens, the user can clearly view the full scale of the pressure readings. The full-swivel chuck and 15-inch hose provide added convenience and flexibility during the inflation process.

One of the standout features of this product is the replaceable cartridges. Both the gauge and valve cartridges can be replaced, allowing users to maintain the accuracy and reliability of the tool over time. This is a significant advantage, as it eliminates the need for a complete replacement of the entire unit.

The Milton Tire Inflator Gauge is designed for a wide range of applications, including auto, sport utility, truck, bicycle, motorsport, trailers, motor homes/5th wheels, wheelbarrows, golf carts, lawn tractors, motorcycles, and ATVs. For dually or extra-large truck tires and valves, the manufacturer recommends the use of a Dual Head Large Bore gauge.

Regarding the technical specifications, the gauge measures in pounds per square inch (PSI) from 10 to 160, with increments of 2 lb. Upon special order, it can also provide readings in kilopascals (kPa) from 80 to 840, with increments of 20 kPa. The air inlet is 1/4" NPT, ensuring compatibility with a variety of air compressor setups.

To ensure proper usage, the instructions provided with the inflator gauge address the handling of the dual head chuck. If air is escaping through the off-side once connected to the tire's Schrader valve, the user should release the trigger, remove the inflator, and allow the air to flow out before reattaching it to the tire valve.

Maintaining proper tire pressure is crucial for vehicle handling, reducing the risk of tire failure, improving fuel economy, and extending the life of the tires. The Milton Tire Inflator Gauge is designed to provide accurate and reliable pressure readings, helping users achieve these important safety and performance benefits.
