Hi, everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a real quick look at this Firestone inflation valve. This inflation valve, or Schrader valve, is going to connect to air springs and other components that use 1/4 of an inch air line to provide a manual inflation point. This valve includes this protective cap that you see here to keep out dirt and water. And let me go ahead and just remove this nut real quick and I'm gonna retrieve my ruler here. I'm just gonna go ahead and give you the measurement of the threaded portion.
So as you can see, that's 3/4 of an inch, and this is directly from Firestone. So, you can trust that this is going to fit right in place of the original if you're using this as a replacement or it's gonna work without any issues whatsoever with your Firestone products, you're not gonna have to worry about compatibility issues, fitment issues, or anything like that. I do wanna point out that the construction material of the fitting may vary depending on what you get, just so you're aware of that. Again, if you're looking for an inflation valve or a Schrader valve that's going to connect to your air springs and other components that use 1/4 of an inch air lines to give you that manual inflation point, this is gonna be just what you need. Well, that's gonna wrap up our real quick look today.
I do hope that it was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy, thank you for joining me.
what i like about this product is it is fast and easy to use
This inflation valve was a replacement for a bad valve that came with my air bags
I keep thinking I should check the airbags for pressure but not with these. They’ve never leaked and I’m super relieved!

They are holding air still. I’ve not aired them up for over 13 months! Great valve!
Ordering from etrailer was easy and was delivered when they said it would be.
These fittings are not easy to find for sale individually.
Mine were badly corroded from winter road salt.
Etrailer had them available at a great price.
Everywhere else that I looked either did not have them at all, or forced you to buy them in a complete kit which was $[XX]-$[XX].
Very happy with my first time purchase with etrailer. Will be doing business with them from now on
It works like it’s supposed to nothing more
Good description and a quality product at a great price. Everywhere in my area that had these wanted $16 for each but I got 2 on here with shipping for $14. And it got to me quick the shipping was on point. Now my airbag system can run each bag independent of the other like I want.
I ended up with 3 of these, 2 in kit I didn't pay attention and ordered this one. All of them have same filling issue.(slow)
Simple and fast inflation valves for my air shocks. The fitting is a push to connect fitting for 1/4 in air line. Don't lose the nut though its got the special schrader valve thread that you can not replace with a hardware store nut.

Well its been a year and they still work fine, no leaks no trouble inflating and deflating my helper bags.
I found etrailer to be extremely helpful in locating and special ordering new fill valves for the air suspension system on my Pleasure Way class B camper (2006 Ford E-350). Efficiency, communications, and pricing could not have been better!

Great - no problems - still works like new!
This is what I needed. My onboard electric air pump gave out. Very expensive to replace. I have a portable air compressure and with these in-expensive air valves by Firestone, did the trick! Happy with this purchase.

They are still working as good as the day I installed them. And again Im happy with this purchase.
It is always a pleasure to deal with E- Trailer
Since I replaced the 90 degree valves and air lines on my air bags, thought it would be good to replace these too. They work great and so far haven't had any trouble, such as leaking. Very good quality.

They are still working perfectly. Very happy I did this.
These worked perfectly when I needed a manual way to add air, in addition to the onboard Airlift wireless air compressor system I purchased from Etrailer. These two items make it easy to control the pressure in my airbags not only while not moving but I can adjust the air pressure in my Firestone Air bags while driving as well. As an added bonus the T connection can be easily removed if needed.
I needed these parts because my air hose was severed when I had a blowout in my motor home. The Firestone air hose tubing was back ordered and unavailable so I went to a local RV repair shop and they gave me some surplus tubing. The union connector saved the job because once it is securely attached to the 1/4" tubing it can also be detached. I cut the surplus tubing to the length needed for the job and attached the union connector and inflation valve. When I inflated the line, I immediately heard the sound of air escaping. I discovered some holes in the original line which, fortunately, were very near the union connector. I was able to disconnect the union, cut out the leaking hose and reconnect. It was a much tighter than I wanted, but it worked!
The Firestone Inflation Valve and 1/4" Tubing that I ordered fit perfect and there is no leakage of air in my trucks Air Bags even with many bumpy off road trips. The only issue was the length of time it took to ship to Canada. This was not etrailer’s fault as parts were held in Post Office and then at Border Crossing. I will assume because of the Covid 19 Pandemic
Good quality, very easy to use.
I needed replacement air valves for my Hellwig towing airbags on my truck. Looked all over town and on the Internet. The valves are of better quality then what came with the airbag kit. Only place that had them was Etrailer and to my surprise were well priced. Easy to place the order and showed up on my doorstep a couple days later. I am pleased with Etrailer.com and will buy from again.
I purchased this set of Schrader valves for my air ride bags on my F250. I easily installed them through the bolt holes of my rear license plate frame. I used a 9/16" drill bit to widen the holes on my license plate to fit the stems. The easy hose attachment takes less than a second to remove and then attach the valves to your 1/4 air hose. Well made. The caps are extra deep and come with a built in valve removal tool.
Handy and works great!
My install by me was Bigwig air bags by Hellwig.
Vehicle is Titan XD Diesel. The push to fit Schrader{inflation} valve from Hellwig are prone to leaking if your airline fit is not just so. Even after cutting the airline a number of times and blowing it out with air. Exterior threads on valve don't hold up to an airjack for inflation without thread damage. Valve from etrailer is a solid professional inflation valve. Had I known I would have spent the money for the etrailer valve. I have 42 years in trucking and my upcoming report to Hellwig won't win me any friends with them.
After ordering the same part from another company I cancelled after 4 weeks and ordered it from etrailer. It took the other company 2 weeks to deliver the wrong part. They told me they would expedite a replacement. It took another 2 weeks. etrailer only took a few days to deliver. They kept me updated on the order and shipment and took the time to send me an email to make sure I WAS SATISFIED. Great customer service! They have won me over as a customer!
These are much better then the ones that come with the Air Lift Load Lifter air spring kit.
Exactly what I needed!
All the air bag fittings and tubing to resolve our trucks leaking suspension air bag, Perfect!
Good price and quick delivery!
These valves are much higher quality than the ones provided with my Firestone Sport Rite shocks. The original valve threads stripped out during installation and the dust caps did not fit very well.
This was a great hook up for my air bags. A lot easier than the original part witch was a compression fitting. Just push on and ready to air up!
