Review on πŸ”Œ Pack of 2 VIAIR 11490 DOT Approved Inflation Valve for 1/4" Air Line - PTC Style, Nickel Plated by Steven Saric

Revainrating 4 out of 5

OK except for the best power tool parts and accessories

I ordered two of these inflators to replace leaking airbag valve stems on a pickup truck. There were some issues getting one of the inflators to stop leaking when the tube o-ring was squeezed. I always make sure the plastic tubing doesn't have any sharp ends before inserting it into the inflator. I had to use o-ring grease, remove and reinstall several times before the air stopped coming out. There was only trouble with one of the gas generators, but eventually it stopped flowing. There weren't any scratches or rough spots on the pipe where the o-rings seal, so there shouldn't be much of a sealing issue, especially at only 20 pounds of pressure.
