img_9983.jpgAnother ebay find. My workshop air (and knowledge) does not extend beyond a few PCL connected tools. My compressor has a line with a vertex PCL (female) connector and most of my tools have PCL male ends. I would like to get this grinder working in much the same way. I think a short 'flying' hose to the grinder would be good.

I don't know what sort of connector is currently on it ?, can anyone identify it?. I could then get a female end to connect onto the flying lead, PCL at the other end.

Also , I could do without all the added bulk of the steel exhaust at the other end. does anyone know Biax ?, is there an alternative that is a bit more user friendly ?img_9982.jpg

Biax is a German air tool manufacturer who make high end air tooling. The connector isn't one I have seen before should unscrew to fit PCL fitting. Look up biax-Germany.com/eng

BOSTICH use those connectors too, I've always just unscrewed them and installed a standard fitting (2.99 for a pair at toolstation last time I needed some).

The last time I needed a male fitting, i ended up making my own, seems to work ok.
