Leaky air fittings?

[Lionclaw]

Can anyone recommend a line of good air compressor fittings (quick connect couplers) that won't break the bank? I'm getting so tired of the leaky fittings I bought from Harbor Freight.

Thanks!

I got the ones that are at Lowe's/Home Depot. They seem to hold pressure just fine. I have a few different tools that when plugged in will leak, but I think that is the tool and not the fitting.

I typically get my quick disconnect air fittings from Grainger's. Be careful, there are at least 2 different styles and they don't mate with each other.

Harbor Freight has the 2 styles. On the first "barb" one of them is just a V shape while the other has a flat section. \_/

Take a male fitting to NAPA autoparts. Quality but still at a reasonable price.

Automotive is the most popular fitting.
