The prevost safety coupler is one of those must have tools. It's a game changer once you have one. I purchased one on a whim years back.
Hi Matt, I just received my order which included 2 swivel couplers, I'm sitting at my desk rotating the coupler. It's awesome like you mention. Thanks for finding these items, like you, I like having the best of the best.
They are so good!
More products I don't really need, but I really, really want!
You can also look into a company called CEJN who originally invented the Eurostand (7.6mm) High Flow Coupler more specifically the eSafe 320 Series
How many wraps of tape do you typically do (I keep getting leaks with 4-5 wraps)? Any thought of 'pipe dope' such as Hercules Block Thread or Hercules MegaLoc?
Love them top self for sure !
Will the blue button male connection side of the plug go into an American bought standard compressor - like a Dewalt pancake etc with 1/4" inlet ? Or do I have to replace those too?
I woke up this morning to my 10 horse air compressor this morning. I have to do a little re-plumbing on my airlines. I had a salesman give me one of those fittings about ten years ago and haven't been able to find where to buy them. I wanna do my whole system with that:) thanks for the video
You should try Staubli coupler, these are great too, same safety feature. Hi from 🇫🇷 France 😉
Whats best set up for service truck. Need handle hot and cold from north. And keep water outlet and running 3/8 and half inch connection without robbing from the other.
I work maintenance at a manufacturing plant, we use swagelok for cu compression fittings, ( 100's of variations) they work very well for that. for non compression water fitings we use parker, I would suggest you stay away from parker water fittings
Patiently waiting for the M3 videos...
Absolutely brilliant product review. I’m looking to purchase these for my shop air lines and wondering if all the green prevost couplers are high flow? As I’m based in the uk I’ve only found a few places that sell them but they don’t stipulate if they are high flow or not.
Yes, all Green are Euro High Flow.
I'm a complete amateur and nothing (almost) confuses me as much all aspects of compressed air, from the compressor itself, all through hoses, couplings (in particular) and even the tool itself. I'm still confused, but tempted after watching this video, but will definitely look further into it. Thanks for your effort to spread the knowledge.
Great video thank you
this presentation would be a good presentation if you did a close up on the products.
Does the Prevost S1 let pass oil through it .... ?
have you tried frexzilla air hose or water hose? ive used both they are really nice . i wonder how it compares to these prevost hoses
Its cheaper and works but not nearly as robust and high quality as the prevost ones
essentially the exact same Matt likes to pick the most expensive parts to ensure they’re “the best.” sales tactic
We used flexzilla in a automotive shop averyday all day. I dont see why a amateur needs the best or most expensive
I think he just tries to sell stuff at is exclusive and you cant easily buy. I was just looking at a husky safety coupler that is $5 dollars i rather buy 5 cheaper couplers than one at $25. Plus he mentioned that couplers are wear items
My reputation allows me to show the product and speak to it, and some people value that and choose to replicate my set-up. I pick stuff, try it, and have created a solution. I selling nothing that I don't use. I would not use a Flexzilla anything. It's not good enough for me.
Wurth makes equally high quality couplers, in my opinion the Prevost button can be a pain when you have gloves on. However I don’t think Wurth makes the variety that Prevost does. Festool uses the high flow couplers as well.
I believe the Wurth are made by Prevost. They are the original couplers.

That makes sense, I work in a body shop and these things take a beating and last for ever, In fact I don’t think I’ve ever worn one out. Another great product. Can I get the swivel with the collar instead of the button?
The Prevost Couplers that you put on the Ingersoll Rand Compressor are 3/8 males or females? Thanks.
3/8" male
Please "obsess" about water/fluid cooled air compressors with a billet cylinder. :)
So how can somebody get the prices of these products and get in touch with you if interested in buying.

So, is it actually only letting out the air from the device connected to the hose vs. emptying the entire hose out like a traditional connector? The amount of air that released sounded really minimal.
Yes, essentially it just depressurizes the tool. Any quick coupler is "self sealing" once you remove the QD. Otherwise you wouldn't be able to change tools while the line is pressurized. The "pop" you get from a traditional coupler is the pressure in the line blowing the tool out of the coupler once you release it to close off the hose and allow you to change. Once you push a new tool in you get the same hiss that you heard as the tool seats. The safety coupler basically retains the tool while the air pressure blows the male end out of the coupler and seals, and when you finish pressing the button it releases the tool. The depressurization is so fast that its basically impossible to shoot the tool out of the coupler.
Chris Kotterman Thanks! Makes a lot of sense.
Hi Matt, are you going to get anymore of the Citrus Decon? I missed the last sale. As soon as I visited the website after receiving the email, they were already sold out:( I would like the whole decon package. Your channel is awesome! I loved the S2000 series.
He's coming out with his own OG-branded blend of Decontamination Wash.
yeah purple to go along with the chemical decontamination products like IronX that turn purple as they work.
I'm ordering the labels next week and placing the order for it as well.
No
Unrelated to this video but will the Citrus decon wash ever be back in stock?
He said in other videos it is currently being blended.
yeah his own OG-branded Decontamination Wash (Citrus Wash is kind of a dumb name since there's nothing citrus about it).
I'm about 3 weeks out.
I bought 3 smaller 32 bottled last week wanted 3 gallons but bought what was left
OG tire inflator with gauge? What do you use?
He says in the video "PCL Tire Gauge" so a quick Google search yielded this one: www.amazon.com/PCL-ACCURA-Handheld-Digital-Inflator/dp/B019XB215S/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1537538524&sr=8-4&keywords=pcl+tire+inflator
That's the one.
Matt: does the lock-on chuck work pretty well? I've tried other inflators before with lock-on chucks and never could get them to seal properly. As such I'm still using a plain air chuck on my air hose, and a separate tire gauge, and switching back and forth.
Best digital tire pressure gauges on planet Power Tank TPG-8560B or analog TPG-8060B.
Best tire inflators analog Power Tank TIG-8200 or digital Power Tank TIG-8500.
It's okay, but I've only used it a few times.
I have been looking a place to buy prevost stuff and have found nowhere to buy it
@@jermanehoowse4618 a place to buy pipe fittings so I can install a system. Looking at rapid air since prevost is impossible to find
RapidAir is not in the same class as this stuff.
@@ObsessedGarage agree Matt but prevost is impossible to find. I can not find a prevost retailer and I have been looking for 2 weeks now
@@jermanehoowse4618 i do agree I'm saving for a high end polisher but a 200 buck hose to fill a bucket I'm going to pass and use the money I save to buy the water filter kit. I get it's cool to buy and own the best stuff but the reality of the situation is not everyone can afford to spend money on something just to say they bought the best. I make 180k a year in the utility industry and I can't afford to just buy stuff cause it's the best I need to be strategic about what I spend on. I try to buy from Matt to support his channel but I can't justify spending on most of the things he sells. That's why inwa suggesting a more budget version to boost sales to guys like me
I'll be that guy. Whatever you need, I can get. I'm going to select the products I think are most viable from their extensive catalog and stock them. A major issue is the pipe comes in 19'7" lengths and cost about $250 to ship a single pipe. I'm going to cut them down to more manageable lengths to make shipping more viable. matt@obsessedgarage.com
That 25 minutes talk was pretty close :)
I'm 67 and a "shade tree" mechanic and thinking about abandoning my 75% conversion to Milton V to Provost.
RE: AIR RELEASE: You should demonstrate disconnecting an air hose of big pneumatic nailer where there is a ton of air to release.
RE: 90* couple swivel is amazing, HOWEVER, for the ultimate in maneuverability (construction/roofing nailers) you need the swivel as close to the tool as possible. Some people sell short whip hoses that have the swivel @ the tool end. QUESTION: Do they have a 90* swivel PLUG?
NOTE: Friend of mine has changed over and I got to handle a Prevost and yes, it is like handling a precision instrument. Since I'm the sort that appreciates that sort of thing, I may have to cave!
Couplers for rubber hose
Just took it majorly in the shorts from the snap on truck. I hope these suckers are worth their salt. I'm sick of F-ing with trash air couplers.
Well how have they held up? I'm about to pull the trigger on these after being fed up with other junk couplers.
@@brandonward2619 It's been a year and they are excellent. Completely solved my air leaks. No more hissing.
@@jagboy69 Thanks man. I've tried Flexzilla high flow and TruFlate high flow, nothing but trash that lasted just a few months. I'll try these out.
@@brandonward2619 Mine have been good. I only use this brand male fittings in my female coupler. I changed everything at one time. I think they are cheaper on amazon. Hopefully not a chinese knockoff.🙄
If you deal with snap on, you like taking it in the pants anyway.
eslo mejor
best 👍
Someday you will get all the info before you make the video full I don’t knows and I can find outs...
Let's have a knowledge off. My money is on me.
If it’s the most expensive thing you can buy...it’s purchased and reviewed and bragged about right here folks
Don't be a douche.

Eleventeenth! lol
You talk a lot but say very little
