Inflator Body with 18-Inch Whip Hose

The Steelman 97989 provides a modular air inflator body fitted with an 18-inch reinforced rubber whip hose rated for 300 PSI working pressure. It accepts standard 1/4-inch NPT gauges so users can attach their preferred analog or digital readout. The factory-mounted push-on tip swivels for easier valve-stem access. Gauge is not included.

Sustained High-Pressure Use

The fiber-reinforced hose handles continuous pressures up to 300 PSI, making it suitable for daily automotive inflation tasks and higher-pressure tire requirements. A brass bleeder valve allows precise pressure release by thumb or forefinger during extended filling sessions. The swivel tip maintains alignment under load, reducing hose fatigue at the connection point.

Build Quality and Daily Connections

Transparent body construction lets operators confirm internal component seating at a glance. The 1/4-inch NPT gauge port and 1/4-inch base threads use common shop fittings, so existing air lines and gauges connect without adapters. Reinforced rubber hose resists abrasion and kinking during repeated coil and uncoil cycles in garage environments.
