When heading off-road, common practice is to release some air from each tire to lower your tire pressure. Known as “airing-down,” this process increases the tire’s contact patch with the ground, providing more traction on rough terrain. When it’s time to go home, you “air-up” and return your tires to their proper on-road working pressure.
A check valve is a fundamental component of a compressed air system—whether that system is intended for inflating tires, powering air tools, or driving a set of air horns. The purpose of a check valve in an air compressor system is to control the flow of the pressurized air to ensure that it only moves
