Looking for 3/8 check valves to go before my air valves any recommendations?
I found viar check valves for 6bucks each used on compressor leader hoses that would screw straight into my fill valve. Is there a better brand out there most I have found are 20bucks or more. 6bucks for the viar seems to good to be true. Just looking for a good quality check valve

The VIAIR check valves are Ok, but can get stuck, especially if over tighten. Some people have had issues with them, where others have never had any problems. I would suggest the SMC. They do run more, but they are a little better check valve in my opinion.

I can get either one for you. Just give me a call and we can get you what you need.
