Hey Jeff - I don't know how much you use your stuff, so I can't speak to
your experience. My experience is that I use my air tools a lot - a very
lot. I have come to hate those HD connectors. I'll never buy another one
there again.

I just bought them a couple of months ago.

Long ago I had industrial couplers that I got at a machine shop supply.
Could not find it where I live here. Nothing matched.

I switched over the HF units. They were good. But for some reason the
female in my garage always leaked... even replacing them a few times.

I wanted the type that are ready to connect rather than pull the sleeve
back. I bought about 5 to 7 at HD.. so far so good.. I hate the idea of
replacing them again..

My problem is the Milton connector you all talk about doesn't match any
of my male connectors. So I would wind up replacing them all, and that's
a lot of connectors...I have one Milton that I bought long, long ago.
