I'm using Industrial Interchange type connector to Male NPT like: Coilhose Pneumatics 1502 1/4-Inch Body Size, Coilflow Industrial Interchange Connector, 1/4-Inch NPT, Female

The hose will attach to the AF505 (the hose's female fitting matches to the nailer's male fitting); however, attaching the hose to the compressor will depend upon what the fitting is on the compressor for attaching the hose--I had to purchase a fitting for the compressor that matched to the hose.

The compressor has two standard 1/4" female coupler connections on the compressed air outlet. Use a standard 1/4" male coupler and push it in until it locks. To release, push the locking collar back on the female connection.With no air pressure, the connections work easily, with air pressure it is somewhat more difficult to make the connection.

Yes, there is a supplied cheap plastic quick connect that attaches to the side of the unit to quick connect to a hose. I never used it - replaced it with a quick connect from Ace and a brass converter - it's a little longer than what comes with it but stronger. I'm sure what they provide would work but I noticed others noted how flimsy it was also... SO that's my backup now. Unit keeps working when I want it to...! I use my old Campbell Hausfeld extra long hose (two hoses connected together) - makes it a lot easier to use - haven't even tried the hose/gun tat comes with it... DT

The maker of the compressor should have included a plastic bag full of extra fittings. Most air hoses end with a male threaded fitting and then you have to put on a female coupler so you can quickly change tools on the compressor. The tire guage even has a male thread end that you have to put a female coupler on so you can stick it in the end of your compressor hose. If the compressor did not have these accessories included, you can pick up a 15 or 17 piece compressor accessorie kit at sears or maybe even wal-mart. If I can explain further, please contact me back to clarify.

Yes it connects using a quick connect fitting. All of us in our 4wheeler group uses Vair. I took the screw on connector for the valve stem and installed a a regular push type with a clamp from Harbor Freight $2.oo, easier connect, safer for valve stem. This compressor fills the fastest. The next model up fills slower but is continuous duty. I picked this one for output volume. Works great.

No hose, no attachments. Word of caution when setting the hose pressure vs. tank pressure... the seal on the valve is very fragile, do not tighten to stop either way - open, close - or you will be in for a 4-6 week warranty repair. This is a nice little unit, but lacks the CFM rating for most air tools. Brad nailers being the most useful exception.

22mm quick connects are specified on the hose I bought. The hose is a great value, but make sure you look at the detailed specs for the hose you order to get the right fittings.

This as with most "non packaged" compressors did not come with any "accessories". You'll need a hose, male and female 1/4 quick disconnects, and whatever accessories (tire chuck, blow gun, and tools) you may need/want. These small accessories are not expensive, and in my opinion should not be a consideration when purchasing a compressor. Air VOLUME (CFM capacity, recovery time, noise, and in my case weight) are the primary measure of a compressor. (Not horsepower) It does have a standard 1/4 quick disconnect on the compressor to connect the air hose. I am using a POLYURETHANE hose (with quick disconnects) which is far more flexible and much lighter than conventional rubber or PVC hoses. I've also found these hoses to be as durable as the others with a little care. I would strongly recommend this type to everyone. And as a side note, the compressor is standing up fine to use and I'm still super pleased with the unit. This unit is great for 23 ga, 18 ga nailers and light use of 15 ga nailers. It will not run air tools! Hope this helps. Good Luck!

The male end extending from the threaded base is an air hose snap on connector. It fits the fill end on the air compressors hose. This makes the connection permanent so the operator can then go and open and close valves during the winterizing operation. Sort of a third hand so to speak. The compressor will continue to run pressurizing the water piping while you see that all lines are purged of water.The small compressors you speak of are equipped with a female Schrader valve end to fit tires. There are items like this that will fit to the Schrader ends but you must stand and hold them in place-- The male end extending from the threaded base is an air hose snap on connector.

Your typical 1/4" male quick connector is what I used. That way I could remove it from the air hose quick. It is a very good product! I like it much better than the connectors that angle 90 degrees. This one really stays on.

Not sure, but found out that the Home Depot close to me does not sell air hoses with the same quick disconnects. Have to say though - great machine - used it for off roading in the desert to air my tires after airing them down.

it comes with two quick connects so you can purchase at a builder supply the connection you need. i took my hose so we could match it up. you will need a male connection on the hose and may have to add a male to male coupler i did.

I always use "quick-connect" adapters anyway. Just buy a set of inexpensive connectors, which includes both male and female typically plus a "receptor." You put the receptor on the hose, and connector on the inflator. Then if you want to use another tool, you can quickly change.

the connectors it is talking about are to connect the hoses and tools to the compressor. you cannot connect a 1/4" hose directly to the compressor, but they make "kits" that have all kinds of adapters for attaching to accessories so that you can inflate all kinds of balls, tires, small swimming pools, etc., etc. If you JUST want to connect a 1/4" hose and nothing else, you need to go to a hardware store and they can find the proper fittings to reduce the line down to 1/4". I tried to use mine for my airbrush but it was way too noisy to use in the house for that. hope this helps?

This is just 4 foot and how would you use it for an air compressor? A compressor would almost for sure have a male plug and you can't mate male-to-male. Sounds like you're looking for an "extension cord" with male on one end and female on the other, not this with male on both ends.

Do you have a part # manufacturer... The attachments are all the same until you get to the hand held units that use a manual pressure pump or handle, compressor filled tanks, but it's the PSI rating your looking for. All the hose replacements I researched were all the same size starting from the 1200 PSI units, but the PSI ratings were not and it's important you match the hose up with your units PSI rating of course, even going several 100 PSI heavier never hurts...
