bonzo_bcn Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 I bought a used Hansa compressor but it doesn't seem to have the standard 1/8 thread. It seems some sort of quick release, anyone knows what kind of hose do I need? Can I change this fitting for a standard 1/8 or 1/4? Thanks!

little-cars Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Looks like a large quick release probably a 7mm one. Could you measure the diameter at this end and I'll check it against ones I have here. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

little-cars Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Looks like the compressor is a standard 1/4 female fitting. You could just put get a 1/4 male to 1/8 male adapter to replace this fitting. You should be able to get them locally, we have then for £4. Might need a little PTFE tape just to seal it into the compressor. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonzo_bcn Posted January 30, 2016 Author Share Posted January 30, 2016 Thanks Paul, I think I'm going to send back the compressor though, as it's quite rusty and the oil gauge seal is broken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
