When using an barbed hose fitting you will also need a pipe clamp to connect it to your rubber air hose.

Step 2: Connect the fitting to your current system. When you use threaded fittings all you need to do it screw the fittings onto each other and tighten them up. Ensuring you use thread tape or sealant to make sure you do not have any air leaks.

If you are using a barbed fitting to connect then you will need to push these into your air hose and tighten up clamp as shown in the video above.

Step 3: Connect your air tools or hose and turn on your compressor to ensure that you have no air leaks.
