Onboard Air Anatomy - Air Free

A lot of us use barb style fittings to attach the air hose from one component to the next. The type of fitting is important. The fitting on the left requires a hose clamp on the line; the problem with using a hose clamp on a rubber line is that the hose clamp will either cut into the line, or not exert enough pressure to keep the hose on and results in leaks. The right fitting is a push-lock barb which doesn't require any hose clamp. In fact, if you use a hose clamp on a push-lock style barb, the barb itself will cut into the hose. Also, using a swivel-type fitting makes it way easier to attach the hose because the hose can then stay stationary while the fitting is tightened down. View Related Article
