Bayonet fitting for a Eastwood blast tank?

[W.olly]

First a BIG thanks for Chris ( WorkshopChris ) and John (zzr1200) for picking this up for me and fetching it closer to home for me to pick up

Good to meet John and his Mrs, shame we didnt meet CHris, still ow you for the Burger


I was sorting what else i need to get it set up and found the bayonet to the supply is different fom what i have.I have the standard and i think a cheaper american type.

The one on the left is the one that came off and the other is what fittings i ma using. the thread is a lot smaller on mine.

Is there any adaptors to get my fittings to fit?

Cheers

Wayne

You probably need a 3/8 bsp fitting, i dont think it was 1/2" i didn't look to closely.
Will go and measure a 3/8 fitting now.
EDIT. 3/8" measures up at around 16.5mm.

Are these high flow fittings that has come off the blast pot and needed to get the air needed ?

Maybe better getting a female bayonet for the air line to fit the this fitting instead.

will go look, well when i get home as of to work now
