    What are you all running in your shops? I inherited a couple of compressors and thought a quick coupler is a quick coupler and mistakenly bought one pack of IND and one pack of Truflate automotive style connectors. Any benefit running one over the other? Thanks in advance.

    My Duck Duck Go Fu and Google Fu may be white belt today as I cannot get decent search results for "Is there an advantage to running IND couplers over Truflate" or I may just be over thinking this. I figure there must be a reason for the different connector types and I'm struggling to find them. /thanks

    many of the different types have to do with the flow rates.

    as long as you're running a small compressor, it really doesn't make a difference. it only starts mattering when you're running 1" impact guns on a quarry truck with 200 hub bolts...
