What is it called

[Jlg]

can anyone tell me what the black bit is called on the compressors where you put the oil I nocked mine and lost part of it and the little ball that is in it

A picture paints a thousand words

breather ?

 

[rtbcomp]

Sounds like the breather/filler.

 

[Jlg]

Got a pic of the leftovers?

I'll get one

 

[Jlg]

This is what it should have looked like before I broke it

 

[knighty]

yeah, it's a breather

look on ebay, you'll probably find hundreds of them for pennies from china?

 

[Jlg]

Don't suppose anyone can post a link to one of these I can't find any the same

you just need one with the same thread to match yours

doesn't really matter how it looks, they all do the same job

I'd *guess* the thread will be either 1/4 bsp or 3/8 bsp (just because most things like these are)
