Review on πŸ” Brass Pressure Control Device with Enhanced Safety Features by Lagant Wardrick

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good price but sticks sometimes

I bought this to replace the original valve on my Husky air compressor. The original valve spring did not close the valve after loosening the pull ring. This valve costs about half that of a factory replacement valve. So the price is the biggest advantage. It is also much smaller than the original valve but has more CFM. A major downside is that it can be sticky at times: it doesn't always close when you loosen the collet at high pressure (tested at 175psi); it feels like there is a little friction between the barrel and the bore; You have to give it a little push to make the spring overcome that friction. Probably needs to be replaced but I don't have a return window. Although the sticking is annoying, it will not leak or open below its test pressure; so I'm going to live with him for the time being. Another minus is the pull ring. He is small and weak. I just replaced the pull ring with one from my original compressor valve.
