Slime20332 Inflator Hose Adapter

Yep did what it's for and is of good quality, a must have for portable car tire inflater's.

Arrived quickly and performs as expected.

this air inflator adapter with locking push on connection fits perfectly on my EP AUTO 12 volt DC. tire inflator Model # AT-010-12.. with no leaks. High Quality nylon wrapped rubber hose flexible. Length of adapter is 3 inches long. the push on locking end makes it much easier to connect to the tire valve . than the screw on connection that came on the tire inflator, lots of air would leak out trying to disconnect the screw on end so you would have to go over the amount of air in the tire to compensate for air lost. not with this connection very little lost of air when disconnecting........... I purchased 2 other types of hose adapters before this one both from LUMITECO THEY DID NOT FIT AS LUMITECO said they would !! the connection on my inflater was exactly as the pitcher described and the correct size as LUMITECO said my end had to be. I was getting frustrated till I came across the slime 20332 .. they Guaranteed it would fit and it did perfectly with no leaks. they said that if I had any problems to contact them and they would take care of it. GREAT PRODUCT AND GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE>>>>>>

I have 3 cars and a motorcycle to maintain. An aspect I am very particular about is to ensure that their tyre pressures are in accordance with factory specifications. I recently bought a portable, digital, automatic air compressor to assist me with that chore, being now rather weary about the reliability of gas station units. However, the inflator hose adapter that came with my new air compressor did not function well in that it was difficult to achieve a seal with the tyre valve and also caused a significant amount of air to be lost when being detached from the tyre valve. The Slime Inflator Hose Adapter appeared to be a cure of my above problem from reading the comments associated with that product, albeit a bit on the expensive side. So, with the aim of ending my frustration with using the air compressor as it was, I placed an order for the Slime 20332 Inflator Hose Adapter. It arrived in very good time seeing that it had to be shipped all the way to Australia. With great eagerness and anticipation, I fixed the Slime onto the discharge hose of my air compressor. Bingo, no more leaking connection problems with the tyre valve and there was just the merest of "pssst" when detached from the valve after inflation. Armed with the digital, automatic air compressor, I no longer consider tyre inflation a chore. Happiness!!

Just received today and was excited to try it out with my Slime electric inflator. Most negative reviews stated that it leaks. Mine did not. As a matter of fact, just the opposite. Screwed into the threaded end of my compressor hose easily. Felt like overall build was solid. Clamped onto my tire valve snug and well without any leaks. So far so good. Turned on my compressor and immediately pressure shot up to 120 psi on the compressor gauge. I’m lucky it did not blow out the hose or fittings on my compressor. I immediately released the quick release lever (which is made with plastic) and removed from my tire valve. The pressure gauge on my compressor still read 120 psi. That meant that the Slime inflator hose adaptor was not letting air through. I carefully unscrewed the adaptor and the gauge on my inflator returned to zero, relieving the high pressure in the hose. When I closely examined the threaded end of the adaptor that screws into the hose on my inflator with a flashlight and magnifying loops, I noticed that the INSIDE END OF THE ADAPTOR WAS SOLID, WITH NO HOLE IN IT TO LET THE AIR THROUGH. Looking back at some of the reviews, I wonder if this is what caused some of the adaptor fittings to “blow off” dangerously for some of the reviewers. The irony is that other than one other reviewer who found the same thing, most of the other complaints was due to air leakage around the fittings. It seems that the adaptor either LEAKS or DOES NOT LET ANY AIR THROUGH! Extremely poor quality control and potentially a VERY DANGEROUS situation (since the compressor hose does not have very much volume and so develops high pressure almost immediately if blocked) if this type of blockage ends up blowing out a compressor, hose or fitting under high pressure. Very disappointed in LACK OF QUALITY CONTROL in this adaptor as I am generally happy with my Slime Inflator (Model #4033).

Now I am curious as why this piece was not part of my Slime pump I have purchased while ago!? Although it is one of those items that used once or twice a year, if your tires are new and you just want to season adjusting, I still was happy it worked as describe. And, you guessed it right, lets see in a few month when I will use it again.

I first bought this when my EPAuto 12V DC Portable Air Compressor Pump, Digital Tire Inflator began to fail and pull air out rather than put it in. may have been a nozzle issue, but after this did not work, i tossed it. upon attaching this unit, it was such a poor fit that air came out from the attachment point. but no air seemed to come out of the chuck. then i tried it on my Goodyear i8000 120-Volt Direct Drive Tire Inflator but it would nor pass air with it on. too bad since it fit perfectly on that pump, nice and secure. and how easy it was to get to securely stay on the valve cores of bike tires. and finally, on the new pump i picked up to travel with - JACO SmartPro 2.0 AC/DC Digital Tire Inflator - Advanced Portable Air Compressor Pump - this chuck will not pass air. fits great on a bike tire but air won't come out of it so there is no point to buying it. waste of hard earned cash.

I bought this for the compressor I already had that only had the screw on style connector. This worked out perfectly !

Good product but price is high.

The product wasn't exactly what I was expecting. It seems like a very low end model even though the specs say it will pump a tire in four minutes. I had 28lb in my tire and it took over five minutes to bring it up to 34lb. Also it's nuts that you have a female AC socket on the device. I had to shave the plug end of my extension cord to fit into the socket. Why not just provide a short adapter socket/plug cable so you don't have to make the customer root through all their extension cords looking for one to sacrifice so they can use the pump.

I bought this to use with my AstroAi inflator. The press-on connector definitely is much easier to use than the AstroAi’s screw-on connector. I’ve used it once so far to inflate an auto tire when the temperature in my carport was -8C (17F). I could hear a small amount of air escaping from the joint between the Slime adapter‘s press-on connector and hose as the tire was being filled. Since the air leakage may be temperature-related, and didn’t prevent the tire from being inflated, I consider it to be a minor annoyance.

The inflater hose that came with my portable inflater has a screw on attachment (not the best idea for inflating bike tires), but this item not only has the quick release, but also gives extra length. Works very well!

This adapter gave a new lease on life to my 20 year old air compressor pump which would no longer screw onto my bicycle tires. Also, the press on lever is much easier to use than the original screw on connector on my compressor. Screws on easily to my compressor and quickly presses onto the valve. No air loss while filling the tire and easily releases from the valve when finished.
