The Tru-Flate 17-373 Grip-Tite air chuck is a brass lock-on chuck that attaches to air lines for general air filling applications. It is designed to stay in place on the valve stem once the outer sheath is released, for functionality like a quick connect coupling. It is a direct air line, or closed chuck type, which means that it comes equipped with a built-in shutoff valve and is not suitable for use with inflator or pressure gauges. It has a maximum pressure rating of 150 pounds per square inch (psi), and a 1/4" female National Pipe Thread Taper (NPT) connection. This air chuck is suitable for a wide range of general commercial and industrial air filling applications.
