Air2/SS1 nipple with 3/8-20 thread??? Does it exist?? Machinist Needed??

As a gear snob - I want it!

A true gear snob would have a full kit of each.....

I'd just have the adapter handy...

Or, since the fittings are now threaded instead if press fit/crimped on the hoses, I'd probably just carry the fitting to swap out....

or swap a hose...

Is this a metric thread, 3/8- 16 and 3/8 24 are common/standard but this sits right in the middle of thread pitch/count.

Major thread diameter is . 3710 on the calipers and 20tpi gauge lines up perfectly.

There is an adaptor to connect a SP/atomic hose to a standard inflator

I carry one anytime I have an air 2 hose in case there is a problem with the octo inflator and I just put a regular inflator on.

I just bought one at dive gear express. I can now use the adapter and plug in the "IP guage directly. Seems like a no brainer for the air 2 users. I didn't even know it was made until a few weeks ago.

DGX Adapter: BC Integrated 2nd Stage Hose = BC Inflator

This adapter allows a hose with a high-flow quick disconnect for an Integrated Second stage to be converted into a BC inflator hose.

That’s like 9.5mm, odd so where did they come up with this thread? It’s not tapered so?

Not a tapered thread. It's an atomic exclusive it seems lol

Seems so odd that they would bother
