What Customers Are Saying
The Kobalt air adjusting valve with gauge has mixed reviews. Some users found it to be a compact and functional air regulator that allows them to monitor and adjust the air pressure. However, many others were disappointed that the valve does not actually regulate pressure, and instead only functions as an on/off switch. Reviewers noted the adjustment dial spins freely without stops, making it difficult to precisely set the desired pressure. The consensus is that this product is not suitable for applications requiring precise air pressure regulation, and a true air pressure regulator would be a better choice.

This product did not work right out of the box. The air pressure could not be shut off or down low enough to be useful. I am returning the product for a refund.

Easy solutions
I ordered this product to regulate in line pressure on my air hose for running equipment at a maintained pressure. This worked perfectly. It was small and compact. It was very easy to install with easy read numbers. Good value and easy solution
Decent regulator.
Simple but effective air regulator. Works by restricting the air flow with a ball valve. Holds the pressure fine. Gauge seems to be accurate according to my air compressor.
Works kind of, but not as expected
I was excited to try this remote air pressure valve to keep track of the air pressure at the tool end of the air hose. My air tools require a minimum pressure to function properly and being able to see it at the tool, instead of having to run over to the compressor appealed to me. It has a very simple looking wheel to turn to set the maximum pressure. However, in practice I was never able to set it at a lower pressure than what was set at the tank. I tried, and tried, but to no avail. Turning th...

Air compressor gage
My regulator gage broke on my air compressor, this gage fit and performed well. The adjustment was a little tricky

Works fine a bit sensitive
I installed this on an air tool that requires less pressure than what my shop air line supplied. This regulator it just a ball valve with a guage attached. The first thing tried to attach it to had interference with the gauge. The way that this work it will not show a lower pressure until you start using the air.
Compact regulator
The gauge seems to be very accurate. I tried it at various pressures and it worked well. The downfall I felt, was that the adjusting valve does not have a stop point to it. It just goes around and around. This makes it a little difficult to adjust. I do like that it is brass and should last for quite some time.
Hello Rusty,
Thank you for the feedback.
Thank you,

In-line airflow adjustment valve with gauge 1/4”
I use this air pressure regulator in my shop for painting, running sanders and various other jobs. It came nicely boxed with joint compound already on the ends and ready to use immediately put it on my air gun just to check it out. Everything works perfectly as it should nice product and I would recommend it.
