Worn or incompatible tyre valve connectors cause air leaks and unreliable inflation. The PCL CO1A03 is a twin hold-on tyre valve connector with a female Rp 1/4 thread inlet, open end valve style, and long stem — designed for use with MK3 tyre inflators, PCL wall gauges, and PCL portable gauges.
The open end design incorporates a pin that unseats the tyre valve on connection, allowing air to flow. Handles are colour coded black, identifying this as an open end connector at a glance. The twin hold-on configuration suits inflation of twin tyres, and the long stem suits applications where access to the valve requires additional reach. Valve size is 8v1 (standard).
Thread size is female Rp 1/4, matching standard PCL airline equipment. The product is supplied in bulk carton packaging. PCL also offer a closed end variant for direct main airline supply; closed end connectors feature red handles. Selecting the correct type — open or closed end — is important for safe and effective tyre inflation: open end connectors are paired with inflators and gauges, not direct main line supply.
The CO1A03 is manufactured in Sheffield, UK, by PCL, part of HORNGROUP, with Sheffield production dating to 1938.
