Milton S-504 Analog Tire Inflator with Pressure Gauge, 15" Hose Straight Head Air Chuck, Made In USA 10-160 PSI

Seems to be a good quality product

Hi - Flow , works great ,If you drive a semi you need this as a second option for airing tires , sometimes its a struggle ( with typical styles ) just to get hooked to valve stem on inner tires and not having to continuesly remove to check air pressure is a major plus , ANYONE who pulls different trailers all the time will appreciate this , High QUALITY TOOL

Wow, this thing is massive!The size is the only reason why I deducted one star from a perfect 5.I use "large" / 9 sized gloves, and I barely can operate this tool efficiently.If you have smaller hands, be warned...When I was looking around for an inflator, I was puzzled why these "single head" inflators (from Milton) was MORE expensive than the "dual head" chucks?Whatever the case, this thing flows very well, as it outperforms a lot of the "imported" air chucks we got in the shop - we've got an 80-gallon air compressor that takes seconds to go from 30psi to 40psi, while some of the cheaper inflators take at least half a minute!Yes, this thing is beefy, and it will last a lifetime.I've seen comments about this Milton units being overkill for home use, and I tend to agree with them - it's really "commercial-use" built.

Recently I could not get air into two of my car tires. I was using a cheap dual head inflator chuck. The night before I was about to take a trip, my tires were low; so I was only getting more frustrated with the situation. Well, what the hell is the deal? All of a sudden I can not get air in two of my tires but the other two take air as they normally do. It is not something I could just let go. Was it the tire valve? The air compressor? The chuck? Many frustrating attempts and I only lost air, now the two tires were really soft. Now it is 9:15 pm and I need a tire dealer. Thankfully I found one open (Tire Kingdom) untill 10:00 pm and I drove carefully with two soft tires (19 psig). The manager was helpful. He had no problem getting air in the two problem tires. I noticed he used a single head straight on chuck with a built in tire gauge. He listened to my story and commented that the chuck I was trying to use at home was the problem. I wasted no time in buying the Milton 504 and tried it as soon as it was delivered to my door. I like it and it works, should last a long time. I don't know if the gauge is accurate, it reads 4 lbs less than a dial gauge I have, but who is to say which is correct.

These are the only tire inflators that are able to hold up to our quick lube guys. They can destroy almost anything, but these have held up remarkably well. The accuracy is very good, but sometimes some fine tuning is necessary for the extremely picky customer.

I wanted a Milton 10-160 psi tire Inflator with the 550-1s chuck. But that one costs $150. So I bought this one hoping to swap the chucks. But the way the chuck is attached to the hose so you can't do it without cutting it up. I returned it and bought the Harbor freight copy cat tire Inflator that uses a universal 1/4 fitting.

Liked my garage one so much I bought another for the motorhome

Did not work for me right out of the box. Inaccurate pressure reading and did not fill tire. I wanted this to work since it is a solid built item however it would only read the pressure from my compressor and could not fill tires and tire pressure did not register at all. If my compressor pressure was at 70 LBS, that's what it would register and did not fill tires at all. Tried with and without hose connected to at least check my tire pressure and it did not work. Had to return this and purchased a Craftsman instead.

Pricey but good quality!Goo

Like most professional grade air tools this doesn't come with the connector tip for connecting your air source. It has the standard place for screwing the tip in - I recommend adding teflon tape to the threads when you do. Just got this and tried it out, it reads 35 psi on a dolly tire. A dial type tire gauge that I believe to be accurate says 30 on the same tire. So may need calibration. No reading when it is 'open' - has to be inflating something to get a reading. Feels like a quality tool, especially compared to the cheap Motomaster chuck I'm replacing. Will see how it goes!

Off by about 10 psi when compared to 3 other known good gauges. I followed some advice I found on you tube on how to calibrate it and was surprised to see the screw inside was loose like it had not been properly adjusted at the factory. I did send an email to milton to ask their advice but didnt get a reply back. I did manage to calibrate it to be pretty close but figured it would go out of adjustment again so i ended up returning it and buying one from astro pneumatics which was bang on.
