{"product_id":"air-compressor-tank-manifold-plain-male-female-air-chuck","title":"Air Compressor Tank Manifold - Plain, Male-Male, Male-Female and Air Chuck","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe manifold is the block that ties the top of an air compressor together. The discharge line comes in, and the pressure switch, safety relief valve, gauge and outlet all hang off it. When it corrodes, strips a port or cracks, everything mounted to it has to come off with it, which is why it is worth replacing properly rather than patching with fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVersions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eS1013, MV-100:\u003c\/strong\u003e plain manifold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eS1620, MV-500-A:\u003c\/strong\u003e male to male manifold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eS1621, MV-500-B:\u003c\/strong\u003e male to female manifold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eS1622, CT100:\u003c\/strong\u003e manifold with air chuck, Schrader type\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich one\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe difference between them is how they thread into the machine and what is built in. Male to male and male to female cover the two common arrangements for getting from the tank or the discharge tube into the manifold without an adaptor stack. The air chuck version adds a Schrader connection, which is handy on portable and service truck machines where someone will want to put air in a tyre straight off the compressor. The plain manifold is the one to take if you are building up the ports yourself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBefore you order\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCount and measure the ports on the manifold you are taking off, and note which way the discharge comes in. Take a photo before you dismantle it. The pressure switch, safety valve, gauge and outlet all have to land somewhere, and it is easy to order a manifold that threads in perfectly and leaves you one port short.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFitting it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse thread sealant rather than tape on the ports feeding the pressure switch, because shredded tape in a switch or an unloader will cause problems you will spend an afternoon chasing. Support the manifold when you torque fittings into it so you are not twisting the discharge tube, and check the safety relief valve while you have it out. If the manifold has rusted, the safety valve sitting in it has been living in the same conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRelated parts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe also stock tank pressure safety relief valves, Lefoo pressure switches with unloader, CDI pilot valves, cold start unloaders, and horizontal inline, vertical and in tank check valves from 1\/4 in to 2 in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQuestions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSend us the compressor make and model, or a photo of the manifold on the machine, and the Warthog Air Compressor Store team will confirm which version you need.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAir compressor tank manifolds in plain, male to male, male to female and Schrader air chuck versions for mounting the pressure switch, gauge and safety valve.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AirComParts","offers":[{"title":"Plain - MV-100","offer_id":67721350578451,"sku":"S1013","price":23.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Male to Male - MV-500-A","offer_id":67721350611219,"sku":"S1620","price":29.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Male to Female - MV-500-B","offer_id":67721350643987,"sku":"S1621","price":29.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Air Chuck - CT100","offer_id":67721350676755,"sku":"S1622","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/aircompressorstore.com\/products\/air-compressor-tank-manifold-plain-male-female-air-chuck","provider":"Warthog Air Compressor Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
