Milton (#506) Original Dual Head Chuck Tire Inflator Gauge - 15" Hose

Milton Industries specializes in tire inflator gauges and this original S-506 dual chuck inflator gauge was the first gauge of its kind ever built in the industry. We were also the very first in the industry to offer replacement cartridges! Gauge and valve cartridges are both replaceable. This essential pneumatic tool is ideal for any vehicle trunk, home garage, or automotive shop. Dual head chuck inflator gauge is made of heavy duty construction which provides for long life, even under extreme use and conditions. Equipped with magnifying lens for full view of scale. 1/4" NPT air inlet.

USES: Auto, sport utility, truck, bicycle, motorsport, trailers, motor homes/5th wheels, wheelbarrows, golf carts, lawn tractors, motorcycles, ATVs, and more.

PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS:
PSI: 10-160
Increments: 2 lb.
* kPa: 80-840 (available via special order)
Increments: 20 kPa
Threads: ⅜-24
1/4" NPT air inlet

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE:
If using a dual head type tire chuck with an inflator gauge and notice air is escaping through the off-side once connected to the tire’s Schrader valve, simply release the trigger and remove the inflator from the Schrader/tire valve. Point the straight side of the outlet up into the air (make sure it’s not pointed at someone). Squeeze trigger, allow air to flow (gravity will cause the sealing valve to drop), and place the chuck end onto the Schrader/tire valve while air is still flowing. Air will start to flow into the tire.
Dual head type tire chucks are unable to inflate a completely flat (zero air pressure) tire. Tire air pressure would normally cause the sealing valve to move and seal the unused side of the chuck. However, if a tire has 0 air pressure, the self-sealing valve has no pressure to react to.

DRIVE SAFELY: Maintaining proper tire pressures improves vehicle handling, reduces risk of tire failure, improves fuel economy, and increases the life of your tires.
ACCURATE: Performance-tested and calibrated. Measures in pounds per square inch (PSI, 10-160, 2-lb. increments). Kilopascal readings also available per special order (kPa, 80-840, increments of 20)
DUAL HEAD CHUCK: Makes tire valves more accessible with the two heads for easier access
INFLATOR: Heavy-duty construction. Magnifying window lens. Full-swivel chuck. 15-inch hose
REPLACEABLE PARTS: Gauge and valve cartridges can both be replaced
MILTON: This is the first original gauge of this type ever built!

Title: Heavy duty and works perfect
Review: Forget the digitals and the dial analogs, especially those with the pressure triggers. I've went through half a dozen of those. Go old school like this and you won't be disappointed. Robust construction and the meter will always work.

Title: The best inflater I’ve used
Review: There is no compression between this and the cheap ones you buy at local retailers. I’ve had many cheap ones. This one is solid built accurate, easy to read and sealed well when inflating tires. I’ll never use a crappy import again. I can’t recommend this enough. great product and well worth the price.

Title: High quality, but gauge is not accurate
Review: Great build quality, good design, very easy to use. The gauge is easy to read, but it's about 3 psi off from accurate. All-in-all it's a fantastic tool.

Review: I've been using this daily since I purchased it. For what it's worth, I've used other Milton products in the past before and never once have I ever encountered a problem, this tire chuck does not fall short of that reputation. I've tested the gauge on this unit up against some of my more expensive, highly accurate (read: $$$) racing-use tire gauges and it's very accurate. For the price, you can't go wrong, it's excellent!!! Don't bother with cheap junk, just buy one of these and have something you can depend on. The only thing that you should be careful of (as you should with any tire gauge) is that you DO NOT drop it.

Review: Shame the scale only shows PSI, they could easily fit a second metric scale. Otherwise perfect value for money. It replaces a clone that rusted up. This one has real brass parts and should last forever.

Review: I have owned several tire inflators in my lifetime, but I to admit my bias in favor of the Milton S-506 inflator gage. The last one I had was stolen, so this one's a new replacement. An excellent shop air tool and a must for tire store technicians.
