isn't that an oxymoron? Push to connects great fittings.



jey my boy where have you been, the one in the pic is a sweet piece of work, its an all brass DOT approved PTC fitting. holds like a compression fitting, but with the ease of a std PTC fitting.

i don't like PTC.

i did my truck with it the first time, the biggest problem i have with it is i don't like to use the plastic DOT air line.

The stuff has HORRIBLE bend radious.

I like to use the parker 802 rubber air hose, with the barb fittings.

You get spectacular bend radi on it, it's easier to run hoses together and make them look clean, and there's more of a selection for fittings as well..

that stuff is nice, but its not nearly as abrasion-resistant as the standard dot plastic line.

i do agree with the abrasion aspect, aslong as you grommet things nicely it works for a long ass time.

we use it a lot here at work for our industrial machines.

If we could all afford it we would be running hardline with flared fittings. But it is time consuming and expensive. I personaly use DOT plastic and PTC connectors on mine. we will see how they work when I get done. Everyone I know uses them and gives a thumbs up on that. I have had a vehicle on the standard two wall rubber line and barbs held on with hose clamps. I found that the rubber line flexes too much for me. Any who....
