air line fittings, what do I need?
I bought an air line (and air duster) off ebay. I expeced the line to have ends that would fit onto the duster and my paint gun and my compressor.
The line has plain brass ends. What do I need to fit them together?

Something like this in all likelihood (though some tools have bigger threads than others)

to connect that orange line to the blower you need a special thingy. It looks like a nut but with a slot cut in the side to allow the hose to slip in
before tightening.
I can post piccy but the thingy is at home.
Dunno where you get one from but it came as part of my B&Q nail gun.

I always take off whatever they come with and fit CPL fittings which are industry standard and available everywhere.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

It is meant to be for air tools.
