People keep buying cheap air hose fittings and wondering why they leak
I saw three different posts last month from guys using those $2 plastic fittings from Harbor Freight and they all had air loss problems until they switched to brass ones from a real hardware store, has anyone else noticed this same issue with the cheap stuff?

Yeah but my uncle used a plastic one for years with zero problems, weird.

Jumping on this because I picked up a pack of those cheap plastic quick connects from a discount tool store and they started leaking after about a week of light use. Swapped to brass ones and the difference is night and day no more hissing or losing pressure when I'm just trying to fill a tire.
