yorkshire_spam Posted March 30, 2023 Share Posted March 30, 2023 I noticed the other day that the quick release coupling on my airline was leaking, I check that it was the airline female that was the issue by connecting tools directly to the compressor (no leaks) or via the airline (all tools leak, not just one). I was pretty disappointed as the fitting on the airline was branded (Draper) and less than a year old (closer to 6 months). I had a rummage and found another new-in-box Draper fitting that I bought at the same time. That one leaks too! So I went and got 2 new PCL fittings from Screwfix (not that expensive, but double the price of the Draper ones), swapped it over and that cured the leaks. Have to say I'm a bit miffed.

Adrianb Posted March 30, 2023 Share Posted March 30, 2023 I find the best way to deal with aging leaking Tools is not to Laugh! But it now now seems Screwfix is the answer! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart Wilson Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Hate to say it if you need air fittings PCL is the one to have rather than draper or other tool companies. Clue is in the name really PCL is pneumatic components limited Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
