I have an air compressor and a separate air tank. The tank has a standard gauge and a filler which is like a tire air valve, with a valve stem. You fill the air tank with a standard air nozzle or a clamp-type nozzle that has a pin in the middle so that it pushes down the valve stem to let the air in.
The trouble is, the stationary pin in the clamp-type air nozzle that supplies the air sits too low in the nozzle and doesn't push the valve stem down. Thus, it doesn't allow air to go through where the valve stem is.
I need a clamp-type nozzle because I am using it to fill an air tank, which has the standard tire valve-stem to fill the tank. It takes too long to fill it by holding the nozzle, so you need to do it with the clamp-type. Sorry to go into so much detail, but the bottom of this kind of nozzle is the same as the regular non-clamp-type nozzle, but when you add the clamp, it adds too much space between the stationary pin and the valve stem. I have bought clamp-type nozzles from Wal-Mart and two auto supply stores in my area.
I did have one that worked, but somehow I lost it and am trying to replace it.
Any ideas?
