Tru-flate 17-351 Ball Foot Air Chuck 1/4 in Fpt 150 Psi

Product Description

The TRU-FLATE 17-351 is a ball foot air chuck designed for direct connection to air supply lines fed from a compressor. The chuck features a 1/4 inch female NPT (FPT) thread inlet and is rated to 150 psi. A built-in shut-off valve in the chuck head allows the technician to control airflow without disconnecting the line. The ball foot design seats securely against tire valve stems for consistent inflation. This type of chuck is a standard service item used by automotive technicians, fleet maintenance crews, and general shop personnel who need reliable, hands-free tire inflation capability.

The 17-351 is intended for use on air supply lines that run directly from a compressor. It is suited for automotive, truck, and equipment tire service in shop environments. The integrated shut-off valve makes it practical for controlled inflation tasks where flow management at the chuck is preferred. Note that this chuck is not compatible with tire inflator gauges and should not be used in that application.

Key Features

• 1/4 inch female NPT thread for direct connection to standard air supply lines
• 150 psi pressure rating for typical shop compressor service
• Built-in shut-off valve integrated into the chuck head for controlled airflow
• Ball foot design seats securely on tire valve stems

Compatibility

Designed for use on air supply lines connected directly from a compressor. Not for use with tire inflator gauges.

Installation Notes

Connection to the air supply line should be made with the compressor depressurized or the line isolated and bled down before threading the chuck onto the fitting. Standard pipe thread sealant or thread tape is recommended on the 1/4 inch NPT connection to prevent air leaks. This fitting is installed by general maintenance technicians and shop personnel using common hand tools. Verify the line pressure does not exceed the 150 psi rated limit of the chuck before placing into service.
